Ok I started to get break shudder on the left front side ,
Before this happened I greased up the slider pins ,
But I may have put to much in ,
Just now I wiped of all grease and rechecked everything is good ,
All bushing are good ,tie rod is good , engine mounts are good ,
Drive shaft is good ,

Now I measured between the break pad and disk as I was Turing the
Disk ,
This is what I found , at the lowest point 0.05 feeler gage will just go in

And when I turn the disk at the highest point between the disk and pad a 0.15 feeler gage will slide between the disk and pad . So not sure if thats a accurate way of telling that my disk is warped ,but it's all I have , seems 0.10 is way off ?

also here are pictures of said disk, and pads ,
Pads have damage by the look of it

Those discs are knackered bud. I'm assuming they used to have grooves in?
 
Yep jesse, you assumed right lol .
So its safe to say that is my problem?
 
Your feeler gauges in metric or imperial?
Could well be, they are fair worn anyway to need replacing
 
There in metric bud mm .
Yes I had a good idea they were gone past it,
 
Just making sure, I will get some disks and pads this weekend, also have a driver side outer cv boot to do ,
I'll try and get the stretchy ones lol much hander .
 
I've never been able to get the stretchy boots to work. I end up rebuilding the cv joint everytime lol

Left side be ok to do , I just take the knuckles off and slide the little damper off let the stretchy boot set in hot water for few minutes, and turn it inside out
Then slip it over , sometimes can be a right pain,
But better then interfering with the cv joint imo
As doing it on your driveway is another matter.
