My wife looks at me with those big brown eyes and says ..."Honey Bun - oh master mechanic - my brakes are squeaking - so out the tools come (gotta keep her happy).

Anyway - the pads are relatively new - don't recall the brand (Bendix - I think). They have these stick on anti-squek pads. I used a bit of grease on the outer surfaces, then took that off as it did not help. They still squeal - LOUDLY!

The only thing I can think of is the pivot springs at the top of each pad - some of them are really stiff - somewhat hard to move back and forth. That and I may have to do a better job of getting all the brake dust out.

Am I on the right track? Please help me get this fixed.
