Rear Brake "Clack" in reverse - Toyota 4Runner Forum

joshik · 10-07-2020, 12:52 PM

Going to be doing my rear brakes today (new rotors and pads).

My rear brakes make this light clack sound when I reverse and apply brake pressure. Sometimes a "clack-clack". Sounds like the pads are shifting? Could that be a possibility? Could it be anything else? Just wanted to get some input see if anyone has had similar sounds before I do the brake job tonight

I have the same problem but in the front. It is an infuriating noise. Doubly so because I did a full brake rebuild like two years ago. Try pressing as hard as you can on the pedal a few times parked sometimes it will help move things into place.

clean the surfaces and install new retaining springs for pads
from heat they become weak

I had a similar issue with squeaking as well. Rebuilt entire caliper and that seemed to fix...

End links or ball joints possibly.
I just did my uca's and front end links. That fixed mine on front.
I'd get a light clunk. Or clunk clunk under slow quick stops like into or out of parking spots. Front upper ball joints were like marbles in a jar
