Take the wheels and drums off to make sure it is not in the brakes. Also you might disconnect the driveshaft to make sure it is not a dry cap on the u-joint. Then spin it to see if it is still making the noise. If it is, then you will need to pull the axles and carrier/3rd member to get it on a work bench and see what is hanging up.

is it popping? I chipped the teeth on my ring and pinion before and it would pop when the bad teeth came around.
