Need Some Help - Rear Wheel Noise
Would appreciate some opinions...
I have a scratching kind of noise (slightly pulsing) on my left rear wheel when I turn right. Sounds like rubbing brake pads. Left turns are fine and straight ahead is totally quiet. Calipers are rebuilt, pads are new and I have just installed a new brake hardware kit. I removed the Emergency Brake Cable to eliminate that possibility (no change).
Am I right in thinking it might be bearings? (83 GSL)

Very Easily done..in fact I did it myself when I did the Brake Swap..Glad you found it in time though.I knew something Was "up" with mine and I ended up Replacing everything(calipers,Pads and Rotors).When I finally found out the Bolt was the Culprit,I was kickin myself!.But I figured NOW I know that everything is New in the *** end of my car and I don't have to worry about anything for awhile.(so ,label/mark the Bolts on Disassembly,Save Some Cash!)
