My gf’s shitty 99 neon squeeks all the time. I put it on the lift to check everything, greased the pressure points, checked the shoes and doused the entire inner drum, shoes, springs, etc with brake cleaner. Put the wheels back on satisfied, back off the lift and low and behold they fucking squeeked still. Those cars are impossible to stfu. It is so bad it will wake me up from the front of the house to the back of the house when she stops at the stop sign 200 feet away.

well dont put brake clean on um. brake clean is good for cleaning but it drys out the shoe. there for they will squeak worst. what u need to do is start with the front brakes. sand the pads down then clean the purches out(where the pads sit/where the caliper bolts to). then get a can of stop squeak(made to spray on the back of the pads) spray the back of the pads lube everything. even where the knubs of the pad sit on the purches.(make sure u lube the sliders to). as for the rear clean them real good then use a different type of stop squeak made to be sprayed on the shoes (sand them first also). no brakes should squeak if done properly i put cheap pads on cars all day no problems.
