have no idea what it is. Its coming from the back so i know its not the cv's. checked the brake hardware and it looks fine. could it be something to do with wheel seal or the diff?

 

Its a 95 4x4 by the way

 

figured it out. just replaced the rear seal and diff gasket and filled her up. it was probably just some wear on the spider gears but works great now. so if anyones having the same problem, there ya go.

 

just replaced both rear axle bearings still getting clunking noise when i test drove, did notice the pinion gear was a little loose when i replaced the pinion seal, what could cause the pinion gear to be loose on a 1996 rodeo w/dana diff?

 

Its looks like a great one. I feel it will be a good option only.
