Left front brake squealing on 1996 chevy K1500. Pedal feels mushey and gives back pressure at bottom. Lifted with 37" tires. Not sure if it's pads or something else

Check pads for noise and check the brake wear sensor to make sure it isn't rubbing the rotor. As far as mushey pedal, check for leaks and proper rear brake adjustment.
