Tanner77 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Ford Falcon Brakes squeaking after just being replaced. Ways to troubleshoot this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFranklin Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Usually since the removal of Asbestos from lining material the material is harder. Have the drums been cut or deglazed? That can help stop squeal. If a shop did the job take it back and see what they can do to remedy the noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_padavano Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Is this the half-year Falcon based on the Torino body? Which brakes, drum or disc? Factory disc or conversion? If discs, most likely the pads need anti-squeak on the backside. If sliding calipers also be sure the sliding surfaces have a thin wipe of grease on them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobileparts Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 And as JFranklin accurately points out ^^^ above ^^^ , this new Chineseum garbage that the world is forced to sell, due to E P A regulations , Is just that --- garbage... Fortunately, I have *** N.O.S. *** Asbestos *** for your vehicle, if it is Factory Front Disc or Four (4) Wheel Drum.... Craig..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloo Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Is this an Australian car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had one of these donated to my high school auto shop class in the early 70s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
