I have an '08 4X2 Liberty that I took to a state park this weekend and did a little minor off-roading. Now, my passenger side rear tire is making an intermittent, but very high pitched squeal. Before I take it off and start poking around, does anyone have any idea what it is or how I can fix it?

maybe a stick got stuck and is rubbing the rotor. Ive had this happen. Either way take off the tire and look

that or the ebrake pads are rubbing or something... should be a simple fix

K, so I took the tire off and found a very small rock (size of the nail of my little finger) in the rotor. I had to use skewers to reach down and pick it out. One of it was smooth and shiny like glass, but it seems to have done no real damage to the car. Thanks for all your help, guy! :D

While we're at it, there's also a groaning in my rear driver side area that I would attribute to suspension, but I took it to the shop and they lifted it up and said they saw nothing. It happens only on turns. I don't know if it's related, but I got new brakes about 4 weeks ago.
