Brake caliper rattling?
I installed new brake pads today on my 91 vette and noticed a problem when driving. After a couple minutes a distinct rattling sound comes from the front brakes and goes away after i press them. Could the caliper or possibly the brake pads be loose and moving around? Or maybe a warped rotor? Any help would be appreciated.

You need to get the hardware kit also. It comes with 2 new pins w/c-clips for each side...and 4 new bias clips which snap on the bottom of the pads. Some kits won't have the bias clips so make sure you get them. Those will stop the rattle more than the new pin. Good luck! :chevy
