Double check that all your lugnuts are tight and have not backed off... sounds like a loose wheel.

Drum or disc? Were the drums/or rotors turned?

Ya I could hear it I it almost sounds like brakes are sticking or the drum is warped.But you said they were new and this started before that.

Does your parking brake work ok?

Something in your rear brakes is screwed up, new parts or no. Take everything apart and re-re-check.

that was the first thing i did... maybe one of my super rare exotic jumping turtles got flipped over and got stuck. the japanese trunk midget i installed must have flipped it back over or something... i will never know, i dont let them out much...
