Default sounds like the wheel of fortune

96 Cherokee 2.5 cylinder 2wd. Sound coming from seems to be the rear diff or somewhere in the rear axle. I don't hear it when I'm driving and everything seems to function normal. When I engage the clutch and start slowing down it sounds like the wheel of fortune clicking away. The slower I go the slower the click is. Also it seems to happen when I turn right alot more than when I turn left. I don't know maybe I'm losing it but does anyone have any ideas what I'm dealing with.
