Constant squeeking from drivers side rear wheel

I just bought a 2003 grand jeep cherokee larado. I has a constant loud squeek in the driver's side rear wheel. One mech. replaced rotor, brakes 2X, brake kit w/springs; still squeeking. One mech. said bent axle shaft, nobody else believes this. Another said problem w/after market rotor & something about needing to mic out a whole? And another said maybe prob. w/e-brake. So far spent $400 and still have problem.

    Thought you might like to know, after 3 mech. They all finally agree, bent axle shaft. Runout .023 on drivers side. Rt axle also slightly bent. Also parking brake all froze up as well as rotors etc. Est. cost of repairs, $ 1883.00. Going to try to get dealership to help. No vibration just sl. flightiness. Boy did he see us coming!



    Thanks for trying.

Our 1993 jeep grand cherokee has a very loud squeeking coming from the driver side front tire.

First thing to look at is the wear on the brake pads. Most pads have a wear indicator on the and when the pad gets to the replacement point it will emit a very loud more of a high pitched noise to inform you to a brake inspection.

Drivers side rear wheel hums constantly. The brakes and drums are fine. How difficult is the hub replacement?

there is no "hub", the shaft will need to be removed and a new bearing installed. I would not attempt this in my back yard, consult a repair shop familiar with your jeep.
