Default Driver side wheel noise

Hi this morning I got in my truck and started driving and it is making a loud rubbing noise. Its worse in reverse than in drive. Two weeks ago I replaced the bearings, rotors and pads so I pulled everything apart to see if anything was wrong and everything looked fine. Any ideas? It sounds like something is catching.

Funny you should say that. I just pulled the tire off again and the bottom bolt on the caliper is seeping brake fluid. Any ideas on how to fix or just replace. Its my fault because I wanted to save a few and bought centric calipers.

Did you follow the RAVE procedure(proper torque and whatnot) for the wheel bearings?
