I replaced the brakes all around a few weeks ago on my daughters '93 Cavalier Z24 with ABS. Just yesterday, she noticed a clicking noise when braking. It seems to be a rotational click from the right rear wheel that's only heard when braking - either with the pedal, or by pulling up on the emergency brake. I pulled the drum and everything appears to be fine. Any ideas would certainly be appreciated.
Update - gotten worse. I pulled and reinstalled the shoes making sure the self adjuster and e-brake were all hooked up right, and loosened the shoes a little. It now makes the clicking noise even when I'm not using the brakes. The brakes do make it louder though. No noise in reverse. Need ideas quick - daughter's supposed to drive a couple hundred miles tomorrow and I can't let her go with her car as is.
