Rear Brakes
Over the past few day, I thought I heard some light brake noise at stops. Well, last night on the way home it got really bad, but still didn't do it all the time. I pulled the left rear tire to take a look,
and found the inner pad worn out; it had no friction material at all. There's your problem! Turns out the lower caliper bolt was slightly seized. I cleaned it up the best I could, but will have
to get a new one as the pin was sliding freely, but not as freely as the others. I had some pads sitting around, so I threw them in, and the right side was wearing fine, so no issues there.
