When you break, it will go "thunk." Just put spacers in on the sides of the brake pads. It's not overly common, but it still happens a good bit. My car is doing that right now. I tighten the caliper as tight as I could then I rebled the system to make sure there was no air. But whenever I hit my brakes at low speeds the rear brakes make a loud clasping noise. where do I get these spacers from. and the pressure from the piston won't warp them? These spacers go on the sides. Not on the pad. Tightening won't do anything. I guess you can buy spaces from autozone or something. I prefer to make everything. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy

Well I said I tightened my caliper pin because on my rear driver side brake I have the caliper pin tighened all the way but when I grab the caliper I can move it up and down a little, where as the other calipers on the car don't budge.
