| I drive a 2006 F150 5.4 V8 4x4 triton 6 lug. I am starting to hear a grinding sound from my pass. side front tire when i apply my brakes. Curious if that would be a brake pad going bad? Or that along with other things? I am not mechanically sound however, I have been watching youtube videos and checking websites on changing brake pads and it seems fairly simple. Any input on the ease of this project? Also any good brake pad suppliers or any I should stay away from?
Thanks for any advice or input. |
