Grinding noise

[93STX]

I just put some new brake pads on my truck yesterday, and today it's making a real weird grinding noise when I push hard on the brake pedal. It's coming from the right front, and I can really feel it in the pedal. Any idea's what is going on?

Your right front might be adjusted too tight and /or the pad is just getting worn in.

Try some brake cleaner and wipe the rotor in case something mistakenly got wedged between the pad and rotor too.

i know this may sounds stupid, but make sure you have the pads in the right way... by that i mean make sure the side of the pad that is supposed to be on the rotor is not facing the caliper. if you put it in backwards it would grind and make all kinds of horrible noise.
