Yes you do...spelling and grammer...
Now for your truck, it sounds like the rotors were not OK...you may need to turn/replace them.

You pushed the caliper pistons back into the caliper to install the new pads, and sometimes this can cause issues. Many guys will crack open the bleeder screw while pressing the pistons back.

After bedding in the brake pads, do a couple of panic stops hard enough to go into the ABS mode. This will do an internal ABS bleed that often times will get the brake pedal where it belongs...

When "u" type, take a breath every now and then...

has any one had a problem with the brake system in their truck. my 2004 truck has the brake light come on once and a while and when i press the brake pedal it make a weird grinding sound. also when i shut the engine off and trun it on again it stops making the noise and the brake light goes off. does anyone have any idea what it could be?

Sounds like you were activating the ABS...Were you braking hard when this happens?
