Not trying to override Tools whatsoever,but I measure my back axle of my front axle. As long as those two are tracking together I'm happy. On the brakes I had the same issue. CRC disc brake quiet helps. Just follow the instructions on the can. Also,and the biggest help on mine,adjust the dead pad (inner pad) to where it is almost tounhing the rotor,but not quite.Probably .015-.020''. That cured mine.The occasional cold squeak is still there when I first take off,but the constant off-the-break squeak is gone completely. If yours squeaks,but stops if you lightly pull the lever this should fix it.

Oh,the silicone brake grease trick did ZERO good and only makes a mess.And will attract/hold road grime all around your piston seal.Not good.
