Default Driver rear squeling noise

Ok, so i just got a set of front and rear rotors/pads from Brakemotive and decided to do the brakes with a lil help from my friend... after being done with the fronts we moved to the back and installed both rotors and pads and we tested them while the car was in the stands...when i put the car in drive the rear driver side start making this horrible squealing sounds like metal on metal and we cant seem to figure out what is the cause of this problem...any input and advicce would be really helpful Thanks.

when you did the pads did you replace those little THIN metal tabs that come with the pads and click into the caliper, if you did then that is likely to be your problem.

we took those off when we installed the ones on the left passenger side and we had no problems but once we did it to the right that when it started squealing pretty bad.

you DO need them, but you want the factory pieces off the factory caliper, it's the replacement ones that come with new pads that cause it.
