I have this wierd sound coming from my rear left side wheel.  
it sounds like a rubbing sound but the wheel clears the wheel well and all that stuff. at first i thought it was a bearing but it sound the same at every speed, can it be a warn bushing?

next time your driving around, and you hear the noise drive for a bit more then pull over, and put your hand near the brakes, if you can feel heat coming off of it (without touching) (also this is with just normal braking) and if you can smell a horrible smell, then your brakes are seizing and thats what could be causing it
