front caliper question?

Should the front brake caliper be a little loose I hear a little rattle in the front of the truck. I pulled the rim off and noticed that the caliper shakes a little. I am not sure if that is normal.

*UPDATE*

After some investigating I found the the caliper is making the noise. When I hit the brakes over very small quick tight bumps the rattle stops. when driving over the same bumps with out riding the brakes I hear the rattle.

My question is????? do the slider pins wear out over time???? the caliper seems to be a little more loose than it should be.


thanks for the replies
