There's one of my other problems. None of the calipers had any shims installed within them. I looked at the helms and clearly there are shims supposed to be there. I guess the jerk that changed the brakes last decided the car didnt need them. But the brakes i had on previously were quiet, didnt make a peep until they went bad.

What i'm going to do today is the last draw, i'm going to swap rotors. Put the left on the right and vice versa. If the sound transfers to the left side of the car then i know its a rotor, if it stays on the right, then it must be something else. Think thats a good idea?

Thanx for the replies once more!
