I was looking at a guide to fitting shimes the other day and i notics the guy had just got some 2.2mm metal and cut a retangular plate with another rtagular setion sticking out so basicly a square edged panal that would cover the back of the pad.
any ideas on the best way to make these or would this do and what metal(stainless????) and thickness should i use?
need to sort out the brake squeal
