Brakes creaking, when going forward Options

[kamax]

My brakes are creaking really badly when I am in a forward motion and hitting the brakes. But in reverse this doesn't happen. Anyone know the cause? I've changed brake pads and rotor about 6months ago, as far as I know, I havent done anything to merit a warp rotor... but than again i could be wrong.

If you've got the money, this would be a perfect opportunity to do the rear drum-to-disc conversion. It's not that much more than having to replace the drums and shoes anyway - drums and shoes cost more than pads and rotors. That is, of course, assuming you're doing the labor yourself and not paying someone to do it.

I wouldn't entirely trust myself with the labor, nor do I really think it's necessary. I tend to drive carefully, so stopping power isn't a giant concern to me. *knocks on wood* I would drop cash into other areas first...I still have to small dents to get out first, but they shouldn't cost me much more than $100.
