Hi,
I just replaced the pads on the rt front caliper that had one side sticking. I
used David Nock's technique by pulling the thick side out and pushing the
brake to free the caliper. It worked great. I pushed both calipers back in and
installed new metal shims and new pads. But now I have a louder squeal than
ever. I did not put shims in the left side yet. The squeal sounds like it is
coming from the rt side I just serviced.

Any ideas how to stop this LOUD squeal?

Thanks,
