make sure on both sides of your truck the caliper slides are free thats another result of brakes wearing not in unison

^ I agree, most overlooked maintenance one could do. Remove the slide pins and rubber boots, clean well and grease.

I see it alot were the brake pads get wedged in the caliper bracket due to rust behind the anti ratttle clips. Pads should slide in and out freely.
