Default Howeling in revers

Sup guys! havent been on for a while as i had said that i would take a break from modding the beast anyways... so 90% of the time that i revers there is a howeling almost as if the E-brake pads were open, not sure where exactly it is coming from? it only happens in revers. It is more notacible in the cold mornings. and it kinda has a pattern to it too, like once every full wheel rotation? hmmm... IDK guys, what you think? and no i havent checked my e-brakes yet, dont wanna take things apart just yet. Thanks
