Rubbing noise in Rear Axle Area

[jjdski]

I have a 38' 2003 Foretravel with a tag axle. Runs fine. When I go for long distances and then stop. I hear a rubbing noise in the left rear of the coach which I thought was either bearings or a dropped brake pad. Both of these were ruled out by local shops. Any ideas?

Had a similar problem on a 1992 F53 chassis. Finally determined that a rear wheel cover was just a hair off center, with the tire rubbing on it on the low spot as it came around....

most likely your disc brake have expanded as they have gotten hot and your calipers are rubbing from this. Need to check your brake slack adj.
