Brake Question

[clean71]

Hi,

I have a 68 chevy with ECE disc conversion on the front and a Dana 60 rear with what I believe are Caddy discs on the back. My brakes (the rear I think) are making a clicking noise. I had it in the shop and they told me it was caused by the pads being loose. However, they said there was nothing I could do about it because it was customized. This didn't make sense to me. I could see them saying that about the proportioning or something like that but not the pads. Since the setup came complete, rearend, rotors, calipers and pads, I assume these parts were tested together. Has anyone else experienced this? Do you have a fix? Any input would be appeciated.

I had a disc conversion done once on my 68 Mustang...the front. It was a complet kit installed by a professional, yet it had regular problems for the six months or so. I only say this so that you might understand that there could be more tweaks and service needed to get things right. Just my 2 cents!

Nothing you can do because it's customized? That's about the stupidest thing I've heard in a while. It just means that if they haven't seen it before, they don't know how to do it, because they don't really know how brakes work. If you want to have a shop do the work, I'd find a different shop.

do you have the correct proportioning valve for a dual dusc brake set up???? if not there may not be enuff pressure holding them in place, also they do make a sticky pad to glue the pads to the calipers........joe
