You might also want to make sure the OEM anti-squeal plates are installed
behind the pads ... they sometimes get left out during brake jobs.  Also,
I've found the spray Permatex stuff works the best of everything I've tried
over the years ... just make sure to let it setup for 10 minutes of so
before you install them.
