First, I am an idiot -- can't work on a truck to save my life. Second, I am an idiot -- I actually trust mechanics when they tell what is wrong. Now, having said that -- please please help me. About 3 months ago, there was an awful clunk when I braked sometimes. It seemed to come from the front right side. I took it to a dealer (see above for idiot description) that a cruiser guy had recommended. They said the caliper was "broken" and had to be replaced. I paid them $650 to do the job. About a month after that, the problem resurfaced but not as bad. Now it is as bad. I have taken it to an indy mechanic with no cruiser experience but who seemingly knows about brakes.
Any ideas what could be wrong? Surely the new caliper can't be broken again. If it is, why would it break? Thanks for any help.
