    Hello all I just installed 1.25” wheel spacers all the way around on my truck. Now I have a squeak when driving from the front left …. Was not there before. It goes way when I hit the brakes. Coincident? Will be taking apart later to inspect….. thoughts suggestions?

    thanks!

    You might have bumped the brake caliper when re installing wheel? Check the mounting bolts perhaps

    Took wheel off….. spacer off…… pads out….. checked caliper bolts which were tight…. Put pads back in but swapped sides ….. spacer back on….. wheel back on …… now no noise…. Not sure what fixed the problem but it’s gone for now. Did do new brake pads and rotors about a week ago as well as a 3/1 lift level with new struts and shocks and new tires….. tires were a little to close to the UCA for my liking which was the reason for the instal of the spacers….. also the reason I didn’t hesitate to swap the pads around
