Permatex makes this spray on stuff that you spray on the back of the pads
before you load the calipers. Put 3-4 coats of the stuff on your pads
(letting it all dry between) and you shouldn't squeak as much. Might want
to put some antisieze where the caliper slides against the steering knuckle
as well. Good luck Steve!
