Hi everyone =)
Im new to the 4WD world and after talking with a lot of people i have bought a Hilux Surf (1989 turbo diesel 2.4)
It runs well but has a terrible brake squeek coming from the rear.
It constantly squeeks except when i actually use the brakes and is giving me a headache! (literally)
I had a look underneath to see what i could see but alas! i know nothing of 4WD braking systems
everything was enclosed!
The fellow i bought it from said the reason for squeeking was that the calipers weren't opening all the way when released so he put some grease on them and said it'l be fine.
But its very annoying/ embarrassing and making my driving a misery.
Can someone help me with some ideas or ways to fix this?
Much appreciated!!!!!!!
