Brakes! The pads are rubbing, binding in the carriers, something. Or maybe there is too much play. The pads need to travel freely on the carriers except for the spring pressure. The carriers may need some corrosion removal and the slides need brake grease.

Hello everyone,

About 2 weeks ago I replaced the front wheel bearing in my '87 2-wheel drive vanagon and every now and then, the right side will make a squealing sound and after a bit it will stop and be fine.

Any ideas, remedies will be appreciated.
