rear brake squeak when turning left
Within the last couple of days my right rear drum brake started to squeak while I slowly turn left. Doesn't happen when turning right or going straight. It's not continous though, it will squeak with each rotation of the wheel. Any idea of what this could be?

Its probably a build up of brake dust in the drum. I would take off the drums and clean out the brake dust and see if it still does it. You can use brake clean or just hose it out with water.

Take the wheel and drum off and take a good look.
It could also be the early signs of a wheel bearing, is it a squeek or more of a squeeky pop?
