Default hi pitched squeal


I'm hearing this high pitched squeal from the underbed of my 1993 ragtop. At first I thought it was worn brake pads, but I replaced them to be safe and the squeal is still there!!!! I should have known it was something else as the noise occurs while the car moves, whether or not I have the brake depressed. The car is running fine, and the noise doesn't occur while the car is stopped, even if I rev in neutral. Anyone have any ideas? Help!

Does the car make the sound when coasting, while accelerating, or both?
