My drum brakes on my 85 atc 110 squeak like crazy when applied. I have taken emery cloth and sanded down both the drum and the brake pads but it still squeaks like crazy. I have a new set of pads but the old ones have tons of friction material left on em. They almost look new also. Does anyone have any ideas on what my problem is?

theres dirt ground into your pads i just went through that put your new pads on that will fix it

you scared of going too fast you effing sissy!?

take the brakes off and you'll never hear it again

I gotta keep waiting for you my friend, hence the need for the brakes.

Thanks Gump, I'll give the new pads a try.

That sqeal is hard on the ears....

We have a simaliar prob with the superstar70 project, we firgured the break matterial had dried up. Plan on replacing the shoes to see if that fixes the noise when applied....
