Well, better late then never. I finally got the overhall done today. Spent all day yesterday doing the brakes and lower ball joints. Man, is that road salt some kind of freakin' evil on a car! New rotors & pads throughout, and from lower ball joints. Had the motor mounts done this past week. Spent today doing the spark plugs, cleaning out the throttle body, new fan belt, and a new coolant temp sensor. Results? Excellent!! Except for one thing..the front brakes.

After doing the first wheel "passenger side", I moved on to the next wheel "driver's side". There are four pads for the front. Two have these fitment springs attached to them, two don't. Realizing my error when installing the second wheel, I realized I put both pads with the seating springs on one wheel, and was forced to put the two that didn't have the springs on the driver's side. Pulled into the driveway a few minutes ago after my first test drive, and clearly heard a rythmic rubbing sound from somewhere. I can't tell if it's that passenger side wheel, or coming from the back "passenger side rear had the ebrake shoes dragging". Or, if there is simply some grease on the rotors that need to wear off.

Anyone know if I screwed up by putting two pads with the attached seating springs on one caliper?

For those who are intersted in knowing where the coolant sensor is, see the photo. You'll see two brass colored object. The main one is the butterfly door in the throttle body "on the right". The other brass object "directly to the left of throttle body" is the coolant temp sensor. Look for the brass colored hex nut in the photo, that's the sensor. Very easy to get to if you've taken off the air intake to the throttle body.

Well, anyone know if I screwed up the brakes? Or should just wait and see what happens? Car drives a LOT better! Very smooth, very smooth shifting, power is back, car moves effortlessly now. Before, it fealt labored to get going, somewhat. Now, not so much, at all!

Check your brake shields, they're probably rubbing somewhere. Bend it back a bit then drive a bit more, see if the sound persists.
