So I finally disgnosed my squeaky rear. Found out the flange on my driver side axle shaft was bent and causing my brake caliper to move side to side and the brake pads were squeaking. Couple things here. I was running Spider wheel spacers, started after wheeling trip but no real hard hits on the rear.

I decided to replace both rears with Superior Evos and all new tone rings, bearings, etc...so I could save stockers for spares.

It really did not take much to bend and I am kind of leaning toward the wheel spacers and 35s helping with the bend. So if your wondering why your rear squeaks put it on jack stands and have someone put it in drive and youll see the caliper move side to side.

 

both myself and spanishgoose have Had this same problem in the last month I bent both rears... if you saw the video you would understand, and he bent the driver side with out too much effort. not sure if the spacers play a part in it as I am not running any, however spanishgoose is.

 

Bent mine to and I didn't even know how it happened. Chromo's are the way to go for sure.

 

Same here I bent the passenger side.
