Re: brake squeel and groan 700 1987

After much trouble with front squeaking brakes I put on organic pads (Repco) with anti-squeak shims. Don't forget new anti rattle springs (Carlsen). Helps a lot for noise!

Organic pads don't last so long, but your rotors stay longer.

I think now after all the main problem is the bushing on the brake/caliper holder ( sorry , I don't know the exact term). I have never found out what is the correct place for this bushing. (Can be moved)

I have Bendix . Don't know about Girling.
