You must unbolt it from inside chainbox. Raise cab, and remove about 8 bolts that hold a plate that is back toward the engine, in line with back axle. Inside you will see 2 large chains and sprockets, and a bolt that holds the sprocket to axle. Use a 1-1/8" wrench to remove bolt, then axle may be removed. Replacing outer bearing and seal is now possible

Loud rear rubbing sound at speed.

It sounds like your rear brgs are "tracking". This means that the outer casing of the brgs are turning a bit at regular intervals in the housing. It does not happen when coasting, only under load. Col

When I am driving there is a grinding/screeching noise that started recently. it sounds like it is coming from the rear wheel and is intermittant.

The fault can be that the brake padds are rubbing against the drum, If by braking the sound increases then it is confirmed.
Howeverr if not the wheel bearings can be faulty, the rear hub can be faulty or the tyres are rubbing on the mudguard.
But lift up the side where you notice the noise and look for these sections, roll the wheel to confirm.

Bearing problem? in 2006 Pilot

Even though you had the brake pads replaced, and since the sound you describe is a "rubbing" sound, I would suspect that the brake caliper piston is sticking and causing brake drag. The only way to check is to pull the wheel and check the caliper. If it is sticking, it will wear the pad out quickly and wll generate heat. After driving, check for excessive heat coming from the wheel. It could be a wheel bearing, but I would check out the brake caliper first. Sure hope this helped. Good luck.

Rubbing or grinding noise coming from Driver side rear tire/wheel

I had the same problem that based on interner research is common for Fords trcuks/suvs. The common problem fro rear humming "rubbing"sound might be the rear wheel bearings/seal. These will need to be replaced as it will progressivly get worse and the noise louder and eventually the bearings can sieze. I would hesitate to take to a ford dealer if I were you as it can run $500-900. Take to mechanic that knows how to replace wheel bearings and seals. My mechanic replaced them for about $150. and the bearing and seals are around $40. A good way to test this is to raise the wheel were you can freely spin by hand...if does not spin or there is a lot of friction then it might be the wheel bearings.
Good Luck

Very loud "rubbing " sound when driving only

you did damage to the wheel bearing i bet it sounds like a airplane sound. also if you steering wheel is off 7"then have front end aligned because this will destroy the tires and they will make noise.

Rear wheel nois

How old are the bearings, milage- and age-wise? It probably won't hurt to replace 'em, anyways. There are only a few things at the rear wheel that would cause a scraping sound: wheel bearings, final drive parts rubbing on the rim or swingarm or the braking hardware. Give each of those a very good checking.
