Chattering Brakes... Help!

[damax03]

I changed my rear brake pads because they were worn out and began to squeak. I went out and test drove it and everything was fine, but now I went and drove it again and there is a sound coming just from the rear right brake. The sound is a loud clanking sound that is speed dependent and doesn't need the application of brakes to make the sound. I can make it go away by braking hard but it will come right back when I let up on the brakes. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Did you replace all the fussy little clips and spacers? It's best to go with new ones, you don't do brakes all that often.

it only does it on the rear left, so is there anything I could have done wrong to just one of them that I overlooked?

It could be a binding caliper or shoe. Best to open it up, make sure everything is clean and free.
