Default Strange Squeaky Sound

Hey guys, I have a question.. Has anyone else had this problem?

1993 Miata, 1.6, torsen rear... When I put my car in gear to pull out, as a slowly pickup from a dead stop, my car makes a squeak that is comparable to a brake dust cover touching a rotor, originally I only noticed it in reverse, but I kinda have heard it in first and second, and my girlfriend has heard it as well, I know I need a right rear wheel bearing, doing that tomorrow.. But this squeak is a totally different sound, sounds like it may be coming from the front or rear, definitely coming from underneath, any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Thanks Brain, I greased and since the rod has a smaller rod at the end, I cut down a rubber screw in door stop, and drilled a hole in it, made a small (1/16) bushing, fixed the problem and moved my friction point a little closer to the floor. I pm'd you about Megasquirt stuff, Brain, when u get a chance, thanks again.
