    i guess it'll work. Man at this point im so frustated I stopped caring. going in a straight line arounhd 30mph theres a whining sound coming from the right rear. I can take it apart and put it back together and it'll stop for a week then start back again, I tightened the rotors down without a tire and they wobbled in the caliper so I replaced them and the pads. I almost think an axle could be bent, but theres no vibration just a squealing noise, and I can hit the brakes it'll stop instantly...

    How's your pinion angle?

    What kind of shape are your u-joints in?

    Reason I ask, is because when my pinion angle was off my truck was making a squeaking sound.

    Its been doing it for 6 months now, now hurting a thing, just squeaking , gears havent been touched and neither has the angle, its on the right side only, I thought it was the clips in teh caliper rubbing the rotor, im lost and stabbing in the dark now.

    wheel bearing would squeal when turning.
    I've had the tires off the ground and it in drive and the noise is on the passenger side.
    new rotors and pads
    new tires and balance.


    possibe causes
    spring clips in caliper
    sticking caliper
    bent axle

    ideas?
