when you say both sides, you mean of the vehicle correct and not both side of the pad.

the clamp thing would be called a caliper. and are you sure that they werent squeeking because they were worn down?

That sounds pretty intresting! So you're saying you put anti-seize on the pads . . . where they contact the rotors?

Your gonna have to take it back apart and wipe the neversieze off the rotor side of the pads. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

I found if you put Vise Grips on the rubber brake hoses it saves on the fluid.
Also, should put the anti-seize in the bumper fluid resivour, they seize up ya know.
