squeaking wheel?

Post by hwyaden » Fri Jun 20, 2014 7:08 pm

one of my back wheels has started squeaking like crazy. i can't hear it in the car but people outside can hear it. all i can hear inside is a kind of wha-wha-wha-wha noise as if there's something stuck to the wheel. i'm wondering if it's anything to do with the brakes. :?:

still haven't checked it as it's boiling here right now. it's squealing like mad on both sides now. if i had to change the back brakes is this a diy job? if so, will it be any harder than the drop links as they were a blimmin' nightmare :roll:

inspecting thems not hard

changing the shoes would need a bit of skill
