Brake pads

My 2006 has recently started to squeal when braking, are there wear indicators on these trucks? I tried to inspect front brakes with mirror and flashlight but its hard to see if pads are worn, have around 30 thousand miles on original brakes.

I went to about 110,000 miles on originals. You may just need to remove the wheel and remove and public ate the caliper slide pins and clean up any small rocks. The stainless clips don't actually indicate wear, they just hold the pads in the caliper.
