Re: Q's for FMTRVT
Chamfering is done due to a pads natural harmonics, and of course the rotors. The PF pads had a different density then the OE pads and I did not have a noise issue with non- chamfered PF pads while I had them on my truck.
However, I did lube the back of both the inner and outer pads with silicone grease, which is an asian manufacture solution, not an american one. On the inner pad, the grease was used between the pad and the clip-on piston boot heat shield.
Check to make sure the pads move freely in the torque brackets before you put the calipers back on. Sometime there can be some extra paint on the end tabs. And honestly the manufacturing tolerance for the aftermarket steelbacks is not a good as the OE ones, so occasionally the steel is a little too big. A little sanding or grinding takes care of that.
