Hey guys, yesterday my car (TJ2 VR-X) started developing a metallic rubbing sound from the rear LHS at low speeds after I brake.
Any ideas as to what it could be?

Sounds like your pad is shot. Or you have a stone in between the pad and rotor

Eh for all we know you could have a midget stuck in your brake shoes, best thing to do is take the wheel off, have a look at the rotor, take the pads out, inspect them and finally take the hub off and inspect that aswell.

All fixed, the rotor was for some reason off centre and had chewed through the inner brake pad (the sound was metal on metal so the inside if the rotor is a tad rooted). I think the fact that one of the sliding pins in the rotor was seized had something to do with it, she's moving freely now though! I'll post up a couple pics when i can be screwed putting them on here lol but basically I took it all off, put it back on properly with new pads and it's all good.
