The pads are the same for the inside and outside so all I can think of is if you put them inside out as in metal to metal but I’m not sure if that’s even possible.
New pads and rotors, rear brakes grinding now

@Rocket Man I sure hope not but sometimes my brakes are smooth as butter so I am not sure
Maybe just take them apart, inspect and see if something didn’t get put together right like others suggested.

The squeeler goes on the inside. Did you grease the slides and the guide pins?

@swathdiver I coated everything in grease that wasn't the brake surface.
I know that, I am just saying if he replaces anything at the rear, again, then do both pads and rotors.
Gotcha.

Too much grease is not good either. If the pads are on right and the guide pins are allowing the caliper to float like it should, I'd be looking at rebuilding/replacing the calipers. Just did this to mine.
