Red face Is there a Fix

I have searched this forum for information about fixing the rattle problem on my 08 e150 brake but cannot find my answer.
Can anybody point me in the right direction? Does any body know a fix!!!. Any help would be appreciated !

Foggy,

The brake pedal rattles? Or your actual brake pads chatter on the rotors?

FYI, You'll get better help if you make the title of your thread be something about brakes, instead of "is there a fix?"

In the last year I have fixed this on many ford, there is "hardware" that is missing from the front brakes, It is a thin metal slide that goes on either end of the pads in the bracket and it holds the pads tight, they are a bit of a PITA so alot of shops even will just throw them away on the brake job and then you have to go to orielly's and buy a front disc brake hardware kit. climb under your van and wiggle the inside pad up an down in the caliper, I bet you will find your noise.
