You talking about the rear one? Is the bolts tight?

if the bolts are tight then its possible that the bushings are worn. if thats the case you can do one of two things, either buy a good used caliper or buy the rebuild kit.

so you think it could be the bushings in the caliper? my buddy said it might be the caliper bracket maby do you know any thing about that?
