Noise from rear, on jacks only one wheel turns. Still. 200 1987

Good question, thanks. The shields weren't perfect or awful. I straightened 'em a little. Either way it didn't look like they were contacting anything that moves.

For what it's worth, the noise has lessened a bit in the interim and both wheels turn on jacks now. After breaking out the stethoscope and crawling around under a running car, my best guess is I was too sanguine about the condition of the bearings and/or races and the fresh grease helped a little as it worked its way in. I don't have the toolage to deal with that so it may necessitate a visit to a real-life mechanic, sadly breaking what so far is about an 11-month streak of half-assed amateur DIY repairs.

Also, tightening up the parking brake to spec seemed to get rid of the clank on activation. All in all, not so bad for now.
