Chic w/Blazer Trying to Learn
Hello All,
Im the owner of a 2001 Chevrolet Blazer 4wd Don't know a whole lot about truck but I'm slowly learning. Tonight had a scare and any input would be greatly appreciated. I just did the brake pads an rotors a few weeks ago, tonight went to stop an thought i hit black ice cause of sliding. that's when i noticed the god-awful grinding coming from front passenger wheel. I cant afford a body-shop prices so I'd prefer to just Do-It Myself. Any input from fellow Blazer owners on possible problem would be greatly appreciated

Chi MiGwetch (Native style Thank You) for all of your input. I got to the rear drivers tire 3 outta 4 naturally and discovered my backing plate is disintegrating if you even look at it wrong!! :-( theres a 6" X 2 1/3" hole in it. The pads & rotors I just recently put on were perfectly fine no grooves or scratches etc etc so I'm hoping & praying that thats what caused the god awful grinding. All others seem to be in pretty decent shape given I believe are the original parts. The only other owner was my sister she bought it off showroom floor few years back an I bought it off of her abt 2.5 yrs ago. She was always very good @ vehicle mat. Records ect. Next ? Is this a job that Can be done on own (please keep in mind im 5'8" & 98 lbs with non-existent muscle mass lol no doubt the neighbors got a kick out of me attacking the lugnuts on my wheels w/tire iron whilst swearing like my navy daddy or is it too much for 1 person to do alone?? I appreciate ALL feedback. This is my baby & lets face it I live in N. Michigan I bought the truck for the 4WD for winters lol Chi MiGwetch Again for your time
