Hi, it's time for a brake job (2nd one since I bought the car 170,000 miles ago) and I'm looking for some input on how to do it right. For starters, I'm replacing the rotors this time. Last time (1st time) I just changed the pads and for fun I swapped out the brake hoses and bled the system. I did NOT resurface the rotors because I didn't think they were thick enough, so for the past 70,000 miles or so, it's been squealing. I used anti-squeal compound, but that didn't do it I didn't use brake cleaner on any parts. All I did was raise the vehicle, swap pads and hoses. Any of you guys who have tips on how to make my brakes sound happy for the next 70,000 miles, please drop a post. Thanks!
