I have an "03 2dr 4wd with 111K Miles. I just noticed today that there is a nasty sound coming from the rear end. Notice more when I'm driving at slower speeds. I also feel a bit of friction with breaking on the back end. The sound is almost like metal draggin against the ground or other metal. Could my pads on the back need to be replaced (I hope) or is somthing much worse? Any ideas on cost roughly too.

Thanks for the help guys

It is very likely that it is something with your brakes on the back end. The pins in the caliper brackets like to seize up. Don't spend too much time freeing them up if you dig into it. The caliper bracket is only like $15 and the pins/boots are somewhere around $10. Not enough to screw around a bunch cleaning up what you have.

 

I was thinking along those lines as well, just wanted to hear some replays from some people that might have a bit more experiance. Thanks for the info I will take a look at them
