I decided to change out my front brake pads to the non-squeal type. While I had the calipers off, decided to changeout the rubber parts, followed the Hayes Manual, had the wheel hubs turned and wheel bearings repacked. Reasembled everything according to the book,

Now my problem after bleeding the brakes and testing them, the drivers side spins freely and locks down when you apply the brakes, the passenger side wheel hub is very tight and the brake pads were hard to install when I reassembled. and now they are rubbing on the wheel hubs to the point where it will not spin, you can turn it, but with some light force .


?????? Why is one side loose and the other side so tight? I remember reading in this forum where one person said they had to sand his brake pads down some, is this a common problem.

Will I over heat the wheel hub if it is rubbing too hard?
