Default Sidecar brake squealing

I have an '06 Road King with a TLE sidecar. The disc brake on the sidecar squeals badly. I have taken it to my local Harley dealer five times over the last two years, they have called Harley technical assistance repeatedly and the problem has not been solved. The pad has been chamfered, and of course the anti-squeal stuff has been applied to the back of the pad.

Please help! Any advice would be appreciated!

Bob
