You can set it to unlisted which is probably best for this kind of video.

That sounds pretty light, i would look closely at the backing plate and make sure it didn't get bent when they were working on it.
( backing plate is the sheet metal shield behind the rotor.)

Vaguely reminds me of an IWE grinding, but it's too quiet to be sure. Only happens when braking and then accelerating after stop? Does it do it other times when accelerating, say increasing speed from 35 to 45? Started right after the level? Does it repeat itself in 4H? Chance that IWE and hub teeth were not properly aligned when reinstalling. Who did the level?
If a shop did, have you taken it back?

cant take it back till Monday, I took it to Firestone to make sure they didn’t get anything in the brakes and they think it’s the weighted beads I have in my wheels settling when the wheel comes to a stop. I emailed a video to custom offsets who I got them from to see if that’s how their beads sound when coming to a stop. It’s only when coming to a stop or accelerating from stop but it’s faint. I have to have windows down, ac off, and music off to hear it

Interesting, it would be cool if that's what it is. I've run those beads in big trucks, never heard them. Then again, to talk to someone standing on the running board, you just about had to shut down the engine!!

thanks for quick response guys. I guess I’ll just have them taken out eventually and get normal weights. The sound just throws me off sometimes. Makes my truck sound like it has an issue when I’m pulling up somewhere

Default Eibach 2.0 coilover


Finally got my Eibach coilover 2.0 and pro-truck rear shocks installed. Gives me a really true level, didn’t want rake. 285-65-20 no rub with 1” wheel spacers
