Ihad the same problem on my 1997 Tahoe last year and i just replaced the brakes and also the springs and the piece that pushes the pads out (i forgot the name of that part)
behind the brake pedal
brake shoes or pads are worn and need replacing
Check the brake pads on that wheel, it sounds like you have metal on metal if the grinding is only when you are stoping or right after you release the brake and start rolling
Brake shoes worn out. Replace them and have the drumns resurfaced.
95 Chevy Tahoe no rear brake have hard peddel bleed all the lines when i disconcet front line to abs i have rear brakes concet front line i have no rear but have front is my abs valve screwed up
Maybe it's coming from the rear brakes.
Brake shoes are hanging on the backing plate.( REAR.) bad u-joint? To much back lash in the ring and pinion gear
Grinding noise is metal to metal contact between the brake pads and brake rotor or break shoe and brake drum. Prolonged contact between metal to metal can result in front or rear brake failure.
Brake linings worn out or wheel bearing is bad
The Grinding noise in the passenger rear of a 2002 Explorer is most likely either a bad wheel bearing, or a brake problem. Check the brakes then the bearing to find the cause.
Public Library has Chilton and Hayes auto and truck books with diagrams and schematics
Left the rear hatch and remove the headliner trim and headliner ( Partially). Unplug the brake light wire that leads to the light housing. Loosen 2 screws below the light and remove carefully.
