metal clips might be hitting. they could be dirty, have you tried cleaning them? spray some brake cleaner on them. there could be a little bit of rust on the pads.
could be a rock jammed between the rotor and backing plate.

you could also try slamming on your brakes a few times to see if it cleans them off.

your pad could be sticking too. take them off and clean them.

No it didn't start when I got hit, it just started like a week ago.

Sounds like its a brake issue for sure. I'll take a look at them soon here. Thanks for the tips!

I still think your motor is shot and you should just give it to me. Maybe it's the sway bars. In that case you should give em to me as well
I powdercoat. If it can fit in my oven, I can do it cheap.

If it is a common problem is there a common solution?

Is it more of a stuck pig type squeal or a teenage girl squeal?
