How to replace the brake pads on speed queen washer Google Search

Cut 3 pieces of wood a bit thicker than the new pads.
Jam then in the brake to relieve the pressure on the pads.
Undo 1 or 2 screws holding pad and pull out.
Reassemble reverse order

In the absence of other symptoms, the brakes may be binding. Try a dab of silicon grease (or automotive brake-caliper grease) on the brake disc.

Remove the brake pads from the car and smear small amount of high melting point silicone grease e.g. Carlube, at the back of the brake pads. Be careful do not put on too much and never has it touch the pad material and the disc rotor. if you do, remove it with brake clearner immediately. The squeaks noise shall disappear if you fix it properly.

you have a rotor that needs turned or replaced,it is out of true from heat,hopefully when pads were put on the caliper slides were cleaned and greased

1. Park the Dodge on a flat, level surface and engage the parking brake. Put two wedges of wood in front of your front wheels and two behind them.
   
2. Put the jack under the back frame of the car and lift it up until the wheels are off the ground. Slide the two jack stands underneath the car right under the axles, one next to each wheel. Use the jack to lower the car onto the two jack stands.
   
3. Loosen the lug nuts with the lug nut wrench, and remove the lug nuts and the two back wheels.
   
4. Look for two bolts that are attached to the caliper. Remove them with the adjustable wrench. Lift up the caliper and set it on the axle, taking care not to let it fall and break.
   
5. Compress the brake pads which, in turn, will compress the underlying piston. If they won't budge, use a C-clamp to compress them.
   
6. Open the spring clips by prying with a screwdriver and take off the pads. And if the pads are stuck you can pry them off with the screwdriver as well.
   
7. Rub a little bit of silicone grease onto the back of each new pad and put the pads in the correct position. Put the spring clips back in place to hold the pads in place.
   
8. Put the caliper back in place and tighten the bolts.
   
9. Reinstall the wheel and tighten the lug nuts. Lift up the car a little with the jack and remove the jack stands. Lower the Dodge all the way to the ground. Retighten the lug nuts.
   
10. Lift up the hood and look for the master cylinder's brake fluid container on the driver's side of the car, closest to the driver. Top off the brake fluid, if needed.
    

You will need the following

• 4 wood wedges
• Lug wrench
• Floor jack
• 2 jack stands
• Adjustable wrench
• C-clamp (optional)
• Flathead screwdriver
• New brake pads
• Silicone grease

what you may be thinking is metal is just hard pads,,,or even dry pads? try striping the barkes out and putting a thin smear of "copper grease" on the back's of the brake pads before you refit them,,,,the copper grease stops the pads from screeming when you push the brake's down,,,,only put grease on the backs of the pads dont get any grease on the brake pad fronts!!!

Those brake pads are probably thin and not holding the tub like they once did AMANA WASHER

you may have" lifetime" pads that are extra hard or rubber insulators are worn out start there and get back to us screeching is usualy a result of using the wrong lube instead of what came with the break pads
