Grinding While Driving ???

[TexasMade]

Ok well when i start to take off the car seems like its grinding the whole time.When I press the clutch in it still sounds like the calipers are grinding on the breaks,would something in the a arms or bearings cause this? Thanks for your help!

Clutch dragging? any problems getting in and out of gears?

Have you actually checked your brakes to make sure it isn't them? They will sound like they are grinding if they have a big issue, like a pad ripping out leaving metal on metal. When I first got my 90 Talon going after it sat for several years in the previous owners back yard the brakes would grind like a motherfu*ker. I had to replace all the rotors, they were shot from the rust, and pads to get rid of it.

check the sheild behind the brake rotor might be bent and rubbing on the rotor that happend to me i thought i would have been a big problem but all it was was a little bending of the heat sheild

^^ +1, check your rotor heat sheild

Now that i have the wheels off the brake caliper in the back is not even touching the rotor.Looks like the caliper may be froze.

its the caliper, buy a new one or upgrade it to two piston or 3000 gt/steath.
