Had a problem with my old brake pads that I had a buddy installed. he had to grind the ends down a bit to get them to fit in the slots. Long story , short the pads got all messed up and made some crazy sounds. Check my old posts for pictures.
anyhow I went to advance to get a set of weaver gold series like I had installed and I bring them home to install my self. THe driver side went in , but it was a tight fit. The passenger side is the one that had to be grinded the most the last time , and I see why now. The brake pad nearest the engine will not go in! It is acting like its too long. The side nearest the tire goes in fine. But no matter what this inside is not letting it take the caliper. I even took the metal slots out to see if it would fit in there without them and its still to long.
People on here told me not to grind them to fit....so what do I do now ?
THanks for help ....shes jacked up out side still as I am typing.
