Doesn't soound like a wheel bearing, that wouldn't squeal I think.
Check clearance between backing plate and moving parts I would
suggest, freely spinning the jacked up wheel, turn steering, see what
happens if you can find it.

Hello everyone,

About 2 weeks ago I replaced the front wheel bearing in my '87 2-
wheel drive
vanagon and every now and then, the right side will make a squealing
sound and
after a bit it will stop and be fine.

Any ideas, remedies will be appreciated.
