Sqeel like a pig!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If anyone can figure this out is amazing to me. My car when I drive it it has a sqeel coming from the right rear end. Sounds just like i am driving with the brakes running on metal to metal. But wait when I let off of the gas the sqeel goes away. Put the gas on and it still sqeeks from the right rear.

Ya I checked the bearings when I put new tires on the car. They all 4 felt good. I just can't figure out why it doesn't squeel when I let off on the gas.

Personally, I would check the most likely culprit first: brakes

Seems that whatever it is is only doing it under load. When you get off the throttle, you reduce the load on the drivetrain.
Are you sure it's coming from the R/R wheel?

Have you check the U joints and the fluid level of the rear diff?

Try putting the rear up on jacks and see where the noise is coming from.Also if it is only making noise "under Load" then it may be coming from the engine bay and only sounds like it is coming from the rear. By jacking the car up and with another person,you can find the noise alittle easier.Make sure you block the front wheels.Is your e-brake on?Just alittle may cause a slight noise,depends on how new your pads are.Just some ideas.

It's a 91 coupe, I checked the brakes the pads are good. The rotors need to be replaced. The e-brake doesn't appear to be engaged. I will try to jack the back end up this weekend and see what happens. I haven't checked the diff but I will do that also. It is weird though that it only does it with a load on it. Thanks for the advice fella's I will keep you updated.
