Just put mine on as well as some z1 extended stud spacers 20mm

I am hearing the rear brakes rub on the disk and the car does not move as freely as before. Something is dragging...Im thinking the ebrake shoes

Any tips or help on how to fix this?

I wouldn't drive like that. Go adjust the boot adjustment thing. It's on the top of the drum, you can access it through the hole in the rotor, and flip it up

Not driving it at all. I have adjusted the boot thing about 5 times already. I have tried just about every click setting and it still makes noise. Seems to only be the drivers side

you can hear it with the rear jacked up and spinning the wheel by hand...something is dragging

something else I found interesting. adjusting the star all the way up or all the way down and it will stop the wheel from moving completely.

Ohhhhhhhhhh, ok.
Is there resistance?

Thin backing plates on the front of what? can you elaborate please

slam1918 · 06-02-2014, 06:16 AM

behind the front rotors there is a thin metal plate that keeps dirt from flying onto the rotor. If you remove a front tire you can either feel & or see it behind the rotor. I replaced my front struts at the same time and accidentally bent the plate so it was making contact with the rotor and made noise at low speed.

The dust shield? No I didnt bend those. There is no noise coming from the front rotors. It's all in the rear. The ebrake shoes are rubbing slightly on the disk. Im going to take it apart tonight and try to solve this.

Super Werty · 06-02-2014, 06:05 PM

Ok I pulled everything off expecting to see wear marks on the inside of the disk where the ebrake shoes grab and....nothing. Looked perfect inside there. My adjustments on the star were perfect on both sides. No visible drag or wear marks anywhere on the disks at all.

Could this just be the pads sound on a rough new disk? I just have never heard this noise before on new disks. If I go and hand turn my front wheels they are completely silent.

This is what it sounds like while driving...

Mine made a similar noise before I bedded the carbo tech's in but the posi quiets did not. I would just try to bed them in if there is no sign of wear.

Thats what I'm thinking. Just went out and did a few hard stops. Seems the noise is starting to quiet down with each stop.
