Airline tech was correct.

I swapped the inner and outer pads.

Dammit. Wasted $150 I can't get back. So that sucks

Thank you to Airline Tech

Thank you to everyone who responded.
I did the same thing a couple years ago. Thought it was the caliper, bought a new one, bought new pads had the heated up wheel when driving etc etc. it’s a very odd design.

After 3+ years forum membership I have reached the following conclusion.

If @airline tech cannot sort out a mechanical/electrical issue posted here, then the OP of said posting may as well set the truck on fire and simply move on.

Forum is lucky to him him as a member.

🏆 For airline tech!

So, after correcting my mistakes everything is good with my truck again.

After test drive RR rotor is still slightly warmer that the other 3 but only by 10° or so. Not going to worry about that.

Thanks again to airline tech and rangerbill.

Have to agree with landiscarrier, it is a strange design.
