2011 Ford F350, 69K miles Squeak from wheels front
Just started, at about 30mph Im hearing a Chirp from the front, speeds up when I speed up and goes away with brakes or slow below 30.
Friend thinks its the brake warning telling me its time for new.
Bugging me. Just started. Never changed brakes.

I had issues at 20k 40k 60k etc with brakes on my 2008 2011..seems the twin piston calipers would stick or one of them and the pads would crack and wear bad...must be my towing.. the 2016 I have has been great.. it had some squeal early on but finally cleared.. has 70k now..new brake design I see on the 2016.

Got a little louder, so took it in to Les Schwab and they confirmed its a little metal piece on the pads that shows.
I've been off grid for over a week, and hadn't had opportunity to repost.
So I'm going to do new rotors and Pads.
Anyone know a good place to get some.

My 99 I went with stoptech slotted rotors and hawk LTS pads. Overall I was happy, I had slotted previously from like 10 years ago as well. Drilled I didn't care for, made too much noise for my liking. At the time autoanything was best deal, you'll have to do some checking. EBC is well branded and liked, they'd do well I am sure...

there are two type of pads to be had. I don't have it in front of me but there are heavy duty pads and regular pads.
I am running the HD pads, bit more expensive but made for heavy service work.

All in, pretty easy and everything fit perfect. Took a test drive and brakes have good stopping power (well as easy as I would let them) Best of all, no more annoying
squeak.
