Years ago a clicking from that wheel finally got my 87 to a real
mechanic.  He tightened the big axle nut -- no more clicking.  I had
loosened the nut unnecessarily the first time I did rear brakes and
didn't get that 360 ft/lbs back on it.  With new wheel bearings, you
could have same situation.  If you don't find a stone in tire, try
getting after that nut before more complicated stuff.
