when im backing out of my carport, slight downhill, and turn out of it, i brake then go into drive and once i release the brake and car moves forward theres a klunking noise, to me it sounds like it comes from the rear...then as i drive forward and brake again, the brakes squeel. could that be the strut bearing? could it be that sway bar bushing, could it be a caliper, could it be because i have no shims on right now..any other ideas?

shims will go on today, will grease strut bearings too

well, turns out a blown right front strut...accidently striped a sway link end too.
