wheel noise

1989 corvette - I get a growl from the rear end when the ABS tests itself at 4 mph - otherwise every thing runs fine. Could this be releted to a loose wheel bearing which I suspect I have?

 it does not take much to tight that bearing...and than you know if it is from there or not...

my opinion is that is not...i would look at the pads/shoes if they are not out and to the metal

Response to MercyAutoClinic's Post: The bearing is in these new bearing housing that are not adjustable - to my knowledge. I did replace the pads and rotors on both back wheels. Thanks for responding
