1994 corvette rear end squeaking
Need some help I can hear a squeaking noise coming from my passenger side rear.
If I drive slow I can hear it, its a low squealing sound on sounds like its coming from the rear passg wheel I sprayed everything down with WD 40 and it didn’t even help. I have also noticed that at times when turning to the left it will make a loud squealing sound which I thoughts was coming from the drivers side front
Im going to drive it again today and try to provide more info.

Suspects:
Bearings
Teflon coated washers
U-Joints
disk brake wear tab
I would jack up the rear and grab a big hand full of wheel at 12/6 o'clock then 9/3 o'clock and alternately pull and push to check for play/wabble. before you "drive it again today" -my 2¢

squeaking noise update
thanks for the replys I just had a friend listen to the noise it is coming from my pass side front wheel when not applying the brakes. every now and then if I turn the steering wheel hard to the left I will get it to make a very loud squealing noise I had posted this a couple of months ago and someone suggested that I should replace the wheel bearings which I did but it didnt take away the noise.
Question could this be caused by my rotors or brakes related parts
The pads are just a couple of months old but and the calibers have never been replaced. the rotors might also be shot could this be the problem??
