So i have been out of state for 3 days and got home last night and took the leggy out for a quick trip to wal-mart. Pulling into the parking lot i noticed that the was a creeking sound. it is speed dependent, goes away with acceleration and normal braking. the sound changes to a fast past hum at highway speeds.

No idea what this is, i did have the brakes apart to paint them but everything was put back together the same as it was before i took it apart.

any suggestions as too what i need to check?

sounds like your brakes.

Either a slider is starting to seize or the caliper itself. or you may have just installed the pads wrong.

Doesn't sound like a wheel bearing.

Good luck

Update, too the wheel back off tried to see if anything would jiggle, nothing did put the wheel back on and the sound is gone
