Re: CPP Brakes SUCK!!!!!!!!!

That is a problem with the pads. I had that happen once on a 96 Chevy truck. I could hear excessive grinding and discovered that the pad was overlapping the rotor just like yours did. Since the pads were new, I didn't want to waste them. I ground the edge of the pad back with a bevel and the problem went away.

Since your are cracked from excessive heat, you will need to replace them. As 72K20 mentioned, I would get in touch with CPP Jeff. He has been going WAY beyond normal to offer great customer service.

I know what your saying but i went and checked the front pads and they are just fine with A LOT less wear than the rears. I did have to slam on the brakes once last summer and the rears locked up. So the poprtioning valve may be wrong to from them. (sending to much presser to the rear)
