A disc brake (10) includes a support member (22) movably interlocking with a pair of friction elements (42, 44) to dispose the friction elements adjacent a rotatable brake disc (12). The friction elements define abutment surfaces (88, 90) movably engaging a caliper (60) straddling the brake disc (12) and friction elements (42, 44) so that the friction elements support the caliper. An axially extending pin (110) is carried by the support member (22) and received in an axially-extending bore (112) defined by the caliper so that the caliper (60) is also supported by the axially-extending pin. The caliper (60) includes pairs of axially-spaced projections (96, 98, and 100, 102) and the friction elements (42, 44) define slots (92, 94) aligning with the projections. A pair of resilient members (104, 106) extend axially through the slots (92, 94) of the friction members (42, 44) and engage the projections (96, 98, and 100, 102) of the caliper to interlock the caliper (60) and friction elements (42., 44). A single anti-rattle spring (122) is carried in a groove (118) defined by the support member (22). The anti-rattle spring engages the pair of friction elements (42, 44) and cooperates with the support member (22) to yieldably bias the pair of friction elements (42, 44) into engagement with the support member (22).
