I am in the process of replacing the front pads, turning the rotors, and repacking the bearings on my 1996 Chevy C1500. On the inside surface of the driver's side rotor, there is a circular ridge of rust and pitting but not along the outer edges of the rotor as I would have expected. It is about halfway between the outer and inner edges, running all the way around. Is there a likely reason for this? The other side was fine along with both sides of the other rotor.

@bg147 It sounds as though the inner pad might not have been seating properly against the rotor when the brakes were applied. You may want to check the caliper to see if it's working correctly and inspect the brake pads to see if they have worn correctly. Hope this helps you out.

Will this video work for my 2002 chevy silverado 1500 2wd 4.8liter

@josephfoster30 The process should be fairly similar if it isn't the same.

@RUSSELGAINZ No problem at all. Have a great day!

@1aauto Thanks so much for the help. Found out when my dad did my brakes he didn't tourqe down the caliper bolts that hold it to the rotor. One was completey missing and that what was causing the chattering. When brakes were being pushed it couldn't grip the rotor properly and was vibrating back and forth cause it was loose with the missing bolt. Thanks so much again and ur vids or A+.

@RUSSELGAINZ I would check out the brakes and also the wheel bearings to see if they need to be replaced. You should also inspect the steering stabilizer bars and also the tie rod ends to see if they are worn. A chattering sounds like it could be in the brakes, but I'd also check out the other components mentioned. Hope this helps you out.

My truck started making a chattering in the front driver side wheel. I notice it would happen when I pressed the breaks lightly. Now it does it when I hit the gas and brakes. Any idea on what it is? Someone please help! 2003 silverado v6 4.3L
