I was rotating my tires this weekend ('96 GC Laredo 6cyl 134k miles)and noticed that the front passenger brake pads were completely worn and the brake rotor was HEAVILY scored. The drivers side front brakes and rotor was in good shape with about 3/16" of wear left on the pads. What would make the one side wear so much faster than the other? A couple of strange things about this.
1) I never heard the chirping noise the pads usually make when they're getting to the end of their life, nor did I hear the metal on metal grinding sound of the rotor being cut into.2) I replace the front shocks about 1,000 miles ago and while I had the tires off I looked at both sides up front and the brakes appeared to be in good shape.
Can anyone shed some light on what may be going on?
Best Regards,
Marcel
