I belive you are looking at a new wheel speed sensor.

When was the last time the inspection cover was removed and serviced? The reason I ask is because on LSD or Trac-Loc diff's, there are clips that hold the clutches together and when they break, the clip drop into the oil and the ring gear will pick up the clip and start making some noise. You also have a tone ring next to the ring gear, and if metal gets on the tone ring it will damage the ABS sensor or cause it from reading a RPM signal from the tone ring, kick the lites on.
