Hello and thank you for asking me, the most common cause for this is a loose/slipping power steering belt so it should be inspected and adjusted or possibly replaced. This engine has two drive belts, one for the alternator and a/c and another one for the power steering, if one is worn or loose it's best to replace both belts. Let me kno wif you have any more questions or additional info.
Yes, that is exactly what I would suspect. If it has a serpentine belt then replace it. If it has a V belt driving the A/C then make sure it is adjusted properly. If it seems tight then replace the belt.
get away from the shade tree. have your a/c pressures checked. the compressor may be on its way out. make sure the cooling fan or fans are working. did you use a quality belt, or some cheap brand from otto zown? if the rear a/c is running but not the front, the a/c compressor is not engaged, thats why is doesnt squeal.
No special tools needed, just a 17mm, 21mm. I do not recommend people without training do their own brakes, it is too dangerous to risk peoples lives just to save a few bucks. Also, any pads other than Toyota's will make noise and squeal, so if noise will bother you, use Toyota pads and resurface the rotors.
