Rear Brake problem
Ok So i thought i needed new brakes because it was metal to metal on the previous stock rotors. but when i dug into it i noticed it had brand new pads. after i replaced the Rotors and pads this is what turned out after i test drove it. what would cause this??? if you cant see in the picture the caliper bracket is scrubbing the rotor. when i dissembled and reasembled it looked fine and not touching before i test drove. but when i went for a test drive and came back it looks like this.

looks like your slider pins are siezed. Pull them apart and regrease them and replace the boots.

Is the mounting bracket to the caliper rubbing on the rotor??

Hard to tell from pic angle, but would look to a possible bent caliper braket. If it is bent, it will not hold the caliper "square" to the rotor and hence make contact.

Yes the bracket is scrubbing, but i noticed it only hits when i pull with the play in the axle. So i took my diamond bit grinder and ground off about an 1/8" on each side of the bracket and problem solved!
