its a 1998 corolla liftback, the bubble looking ones with circle lights

hey guys ive noticed a big problem over the last few days My rear schock is gone which made a rattle but over the last few days to drive straight I have to have the steering wheel turned which made me think the wheel allignment was screwed. When I'm driving apart from the wheel being turned when ever I hit a pothole or slight bump in the road the rear makes a clunky noise and the car seems to jolt to the left or right as if it wants to slide out I had a closer look with a mehanic and the rear right wheel is bent inwards ANy ideas I'm taking it to a mechanic monday to get fixeed just don't know what I should be expecting as far a the problem (and a price) goes I also hit a gutter 6 months back on the rear LEFT side which could have caused the problem thanks

It was fine all day and has just started again

I cleaned out the drum and it ain't squeaking anymore, let's hope it stays that way, thanks for all your help guys you saved me a bit of money :)

Okay thanks, it's my first car so I don't know what I'm doing but I'll give it a go

Okay cool do I just take wheel off abd take drum off and clean it with air or something similiar?

Hey I drove through some gravel and it started after that , And rear brakes are drum

Hey guys On my 1998 corolla hatchback the left rear brake is squeaking when driving slow and goes away when I hit about 50km/h When it happens if I put the handbrake up just a tiny bit (not enough to turn light on) it goes away Also if I pull the handbrake right up just before it locks the wheels it's extremely loud abd squeaky I'm not sure what is causing this but it's becoming quite annoying hopefully someone knows what I can do Thanks
