Failed to update, but it turned out my entire carrier was about busted in half when where the pin is when it was jacked up and the wheels turned.
I had replaced a wheel cylinder about a month and a half ago, because my brakes smelled hot and there was fluid all slung up inside of my wheel (and it almost always slings out to the passenger side—corresponding with the cylinder I thought had gone bad).
Turns out it probably wasn’t brake fluid (well, still a possibility). I had a bad axle seal, so it was more than likely axle grease had slung all over.
When jacked up, that bracket really separated. You could push my back end about 4-5 inches.
Drives brand new now. Thanks for all your help.
