front brake caliper rattle

I have a 1990 GMC Suburban V1500 and the front brake calipers rattle against the caliper mount. The bolts are plenty tight and I put new bushings in the bolt holes. It is rattling against the ears that come down against either end of the calipers. There is a good 1/8-1/4 of an inch gap between the ear and the caliper. It looks to me like they should be tight against the end of the caliper to help handle the stress on the caliper while braking. The bolts are not bent or anything and it stops good enough and nice and straight but the rattle is driving me crazy. Does anyone have some pics of their brake caliper set up that I could look at or has anyone else had this problem?
