Acually fixed this problem two days ago and the problem has not come back. I was hearing a
clicking sound from the driver's rear wheel/wheels. I wasnt sure what it was so I pulled off the
wheels. I have an air compressor and blew out all the brake dust out of the calipers and wiped
down the wheels with a rag. I turned the wheel assembly the best I could and the bearing sounded
good. Didnt see any little rocks in the caliper or hucaps.

I retorqued the lugs nuts to 80 ft lb with a torque wrench. Then I tried shaking the wheel by hand at the 12 by 6 and the 3 by 9 locations and it didnt feel like the wheel bearing was loose. Remounted and
drove with no noise.

I love a cheap fix!
