I'm pretty sure my back driverside brake caliper is bad and is engaging all the time causing constant squeeking and is the whole wheel is hot as hell when I stop. I can actually feel heat rising from it and smell burning brakes, its not smoking or red hot though.

Also when Im at a stop I can pump the brakes and it creaks all to hell on that side.

I'm pretty sure it must be bad somehow, anyone rebuild em before? I heard that's what I need to do. I have LT1 rear brakes right now that came with my 9inch.

Is it a pain in the ***? Should I just go look in a junkyard for a new LT1 rear brake?

I have rebuilt C4 rear calipers as that is what I have. I believe they are similar to the LT1 rears, it's not a difficult job at all.

check the pins 1st........they freeze up at the drop of a hat......its a little easier than pulling the pistons and replacing the seals

It's actually pretty easy to do...a little messy, but can be done with just basic tools:
