Also solved an odd pinging/scraping noise, it was the LCA/tie rod ball joint heat shield behind the rotor, I must have bent it when installing the Koni FSD and it was scraping a high spot/pad deposit on my old rotor. I bent it back and it is blissfully silent now. And now that I see this picture up close, I need to clean my calipers, dang.
