I just put on OEM Lockheed pads front and rear, 2002 Discovery II, and they squeak like a mother f****r, sounds like a city bus stopping. Didnt replace the rotors because the truck only has 25K miles. Rotors dont seem to have sustained any damage. Any Suggestions. |

LR engineered them that way to let you know that they haven't fallen off on the way to the mall - as far as I can tell.

Its due to the vibration between the metal back of the pad and the piston - and/or the vibrating action of the pads on the pins they slide on. The anti squeal stuff at autoparts stores is a kind of grease for the back of the pads. Try it. |

The Lockheeds I bought recommended anti seeze compound on the back of the pad and the pins. Just a thought. Gordo. 89 RR |
