Any tips for greasing slide pins

[Robti]

Hi so getting a squeal from rear n/s wheel and looking to re-grease the slider pins, so any hints or tips before I start ?
Thanks

Mine did that for months. Most annoying.---


Changed the pads and now it's totally silent.---

Hi Robert.
remove the sliders clean then up so they are nice and shinny then smear them with some red rubber grease, also add a little ceramic grease to the back of the pads.

Don't the pads have anti-squeal shims already stuck to the back?

Thanks all I am just finishing doing a full rebuild on my 800 rear callipers so after I refit them will move onto the ZTT brakes

Sometimes the 3 prongs on the inner pad that recess into the piston dont fit tightly, the pad will work ok, but will have a vibration through the part of the spring claw that will make a lovely noise, worth checking the pad claws and bending them slightly if in doubt, as long as the claws grip properly.
