Exclamation High pitched screech/squeel only when turning left??

Just as the title says I get a very loud, very embarassing screech whenever I turn left. It sounds like it's coming from the rear left side wheel. I even hear it sometimes when I'm on the freeway going into a left hand curve. The speed of the screeching increases as vehicle speed increases. I originally thought that it could be brake related but after looking at the brakes I am starting to wonder if it is something internally wrong with my rear end. I had all the bearings replaced when I had my gears installed. What gives?? It's driving me nuts... Thanks in advance.

Im in the same boat as you, and i can't find it either...The next time you hear that noise, hit your brakes to see if the noise quits or not..That should eliminate the brakes, id think..

I have had the same problem as both of you two. I had bigger rims put on and have always thought it was just the tires rubbing, but never really sure. It bothers me everytime I hear it. Hope someone knows whats going on here.

I normally try to do all of the work on my car but I am just so frustrated with this right now that I almost feel like taking it somewhere!!

My front wheel hub use to make a humming noise when turn at highway speeds... That might be it.... If you are sure its from the rear, might be an axle bearing going out...
