So I know our front calipers are of the floating type, and as such do make a bit of noise, but lately thay seem to be rattling when going over bumps etc. I can even rattle them by hand. IS there a bushing kit available?  Do they even have bushings in these things???  They're on a '99 STD with 18k miles.

when mine started rattling going over bumps..which is very irritating BTW..what i done was remove the curved spring that holds tension on the pads..put more of a curve to it..and re-installed it..took care of my rattling problem.

Here's the part number:

This is the part lonerider is mentioning.

You can find it in the parts list for the front caliper.
