New problem
Have not had a chance to really look yet, but on the way to work guess what? A New noise. A grinding coming from the drivers rear wheel. No marks on the rotor itself I can see that through the wheels. So could this be a bearing going out or a u joint. just your thoughts here so I know what I should be looking for when I get home tonight.
Oh its a 93 LT1 coupe with 80,000 on it.

My thoughts....if your are losing a bearing you may not get home. Other than that, my crystal ball is broken.

Had someone pull off the wheel, it is not the bearing, turns out to be the u joints. Oh well.
