Rear wheel noise

I am getting noises from the right rear wheel well when doing 20mph. It has an alternating sound like a door creeking. All driveline components check out. I have checked everything except the bearings. What is it?

Well, if you've checked everything but the bearings....

Though I tend to believe a creaking is either suspension components (bushings, etc.) or brakes.

It only happens when the car is in motion, going over smooth surfaces. Clanking occours when the car goes over bumps,Which comes from an entirely different part of the rear suspension. Ofcorse it looks like I might have to drop the whole subframe and redo everything.
