    I noticed a couple weeks back my breaks started to gain a slight squeak. I thought since i offroad quite a bit it coulda been maybe sand, mud, a rock or something to cause that. i washed the heck outta the wheels tires wheel wells etc to make sure of nothing causing the squeak. It still has a squeak, now im assuming that its the break pads? it only squeaks when i hit the breaks so pads are the only thing i assume.. anything else i would have to change besides the pads to fix that? any help would be appreciate

    also the brake fuild level is a great way to tell if your pads are low.......
