a) The rear was making noise.

b) I replaced he rear end seals, and the left one is leaking already

(the reason I replaced the stock seal originally)

c) Vibration at 70+ mph

d) Went to have the car professionally aligned by a race shop,

the thrust angle on the rear is off by several degrees

(and there's no way to safely adjust it back to stock)

e) The left rear caliper makes noise too (clack, clack, clack,) until

it I press the brakes (new brakes and rotors too).

if the caliper makes noise thats a teltale sign of a bent axle, the rotor wobbles and moves the caliper back and forth, this could also be your wierd alignment....
