Help! Rotor resisting turning
#22
Went out and took a video this morning. I'm really thinking it might be the wheel bearing or hub after hearing about the Rear Axle Nut TSB.
I don't know how to embed videos so if it doesn't work here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oE7n...PNXQNezyNRtqeg

I had the same kind of noise from my rear before and it was driving me nuts.
It was just the spring pad that got loose and was scraping on top of the rotor, maybe not your problem but easy to check.
It's #12 in the picture
Btw if you want to embed youtube clips just post the link without the s in the https://

Good news! I fixed it! turns out my left rear axle nut was at something like 140ft/lbs so We took it off and cranked it to 250ft/lbs and the squeak is gone!! so happy and grateful for everyone's help.
Everyone make sure to do the Axle Nut TSB
Flanders I thought it was the clips too but they weren't making contact with the rotor but thank you anyways!

250ftlb is not enough. You need to get over 400 with a cheater pipe.

Make sure you oiled the mating surface of the axle nut when you torqued it. Not the threaded part, but the face of the nut that comes in contact with the hub. This is very important. If you are using a torque wrench smaller than 3/4", I would torque to 180ft/lbs and then rotate 60 degrees additional, manually. Most 1/2" torque wrenches aren't going to be accurate when you get that high in torque range.
