Rear End Noise(Video/Sound included)
Hello,
I have had a rear end noise for a little bit now, has not gotten worse, just has always been there. It will start anywhere above 20mph. When I let off the gas sometimes it will go away, until I hit the gas again, then its back.
I will include a video with my iPhone, which is not the best but the sound still is the same. You have to turn your volume all the way up to hear it. Right at the end of the video, I get off the gas and then back on it again. You can hear it.

Thanks for any input!

It does come from the rear, considerably louder when I have the sliding window open, almost too loud to keep open. I am pretty sure it is coming from the rear axle somewhere. Just not sure.
Sometimes it stops making the noise when I let off the gas, but sometimes it is still there too. Kinda weird, always there but never has gotten worse in 130,000 of it doing it. My dad bought the truck with 20,000 on it and has done it since then.
Thanks!

i would start with making sure theres lube in the rear pumpkin and housing. if thats good, check the rear drum brakes to make sure your pads arent rubbing on the drum. if that checks out, then check the rear wheel bearings. those are the only things that i can think of off the top of my head that could make noises like that.

+1 on that....but I would go further. Pull diff cover off and look inside and see if there is excessive wear on the gears.

Now I think it is safe to say that the cover needs to be pulled and install a new gasket, correct? Looks like I'll be searching the site for step by step on changing the gear oil and gasket when the next nice day comes around, which here in NE PA, might be after the winter... Unless I can get to my bosses house/shop and change it in his heated garage.
Now to check the rear fluid, all I do is pop off that rubber plug? It should be filled to the top of the plug correct?
TIA!
