Ehab ; whoa; before you go into expensive trans repairs , try this, jack up the rear of the car ,remove both tires and rims, grab the stub axles and try to see if there is any free play. It might be a back swing arm bearing going bad . This not uncommon and often happens when a cv goes bad. If there is any free play up and down ,this is a sign of a bad wheel bearing and the drum then rubs. Another sign of this might be that the rear hub gets very hot from the bad bearing after having been run. Often ,the results are a warped drum, which you then hear as the rubbing sound every turn of the wheel. One other thing, on occasion the parking brake cables stick and do not allow the brake shoes to return and the drum is over heated and gets warped ,causing the symptoms you are alluding to.As the shoes get hot ,they expand and the whole deal gets worse. You might notice a slight pulling to the steering of the car if this the case.
