1991 Ford F150 Brakes knocking - 5/27/2008 8:37:42 PM    kevcoz   Posts: 5 Score: 0 Joined: 5/27/2008 Status: offline    I replaced the front brakes and calipers on my F-150.  I am hearing a knocking noise from the drivers side wheel.  It gets louder and faster as the speed increases. The noise goes away when the brakes are applied.   Can anyone tell what is causing this? Post #: 1

Also check the slide pins are installed correctly and the outer pad is snug in the caliper. (in reply to kevcoz) Post #: 2
