I am working on the back brakes today, during some free time on a 98 Mustang GT.
I replaced the pads and rotors.
I used the rent-a-tool for the calipers with no issues, but it appears I have a problem.
On the brake rotor bracket, there are two sponge like pieces where the two brake caliper bolts go in. Do you know what I am talking about?
1. One of the "sponges" moves in and out freely (both do on the other side), but one of the sponges is like a solid piece and will not move in and out freely. I went ahead and bolted it up and I was getting grinding noises from the rear.
2. What is a good way to get surface rust off the rotors?
Thanks for any help!
