Car makes funny sounds with E-Brake on

Well, got my car back from Racing Concept (for those of you who read my last post) but there's a couple problems with it. First off, they broke my tie-rod (or something related to tie-rod) and they need to get the part from Honda. However, the car is driveable. 2nd, whenever I put my e-brake on when I'm on an incline, and i rock the car a little bit, it squeaks. It didn't do this before, should I be worried about this? Could the tie-rod or lack of a camber kit be the problem?

I forgot what the reason of it is, but it has to do with the springs making the chassis more stiff and rigid [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

My car does that too, it's probably just rust or something on the pads for the drum, or on the drum itself.

Yes its normal. It happend to me too. Its just rear drum and pad that are against each other when the E-brakes are on. So when u move the car the brake and drum slips a bit making it squeak. Pull the brake hard then i shouldnt do that or if it still does I woulnt worry about it
