RATTLING NEAR FRONT RIGHT TIRE

H'YAMULE · 08-18-2001, 09:10 AM

Hello all, about six months ago I did the Grenada swap to upgrade to disk brakes. Eveything seems to be fine stopping wise but I have recently noticed a sometimes loud rattling noise coming from the front right tire area. I've looked around under there twice but I haven't seen anything loose. Has anyone else ran across thi problem. It seems to go away when I press the brake pedal or if I am going less than 20 mph. Thanks for any advice.

Do the easy first. Make sure the shock is tight. The caliper is tight too. May just be the pad rattling in the caliper. I don't remember if that set up has anti-rattle clips. Check and see, if it does, make sure they are there and working.

Thanks Gearhead, I'll check those out. I don't remember any clips when I did the swap.
