Hello,
I have a 2004 silverado Z71 and my right rear wheel squeaks alot after its been driving for a while. It only squeaks while driving and stops when stopped gets louder as I go faster. It doesn't get louder or quieter when i tap the brakes either. The brake pads/rotors are in good shape. I thought it was my u joint and had that replaced but the noise is definitely coming from rear wheel. Anyone have any suggestions?

Leaf springs are a possibility. Just a suggestion, not a diagnosis. I encourage you to take the vehicle in for an inspection. A certified technician will be able to offer a more accurate diagnosis with a physical inspection.
Keep us posted!
