You make it sound as though you are certain it's coming from the differential? Are you sure about that? What type of brakes are on that? Take your wheels off and check all the brake components. If you have disc brakes check for an inboard pad that has a broken clip that holds it in place. Otherwise, start grabbing suspension components and make sure there is nothing loose.

Well you say it started after you installed shocks, try removing the shocks and take a short drive with no shocks and see if the noise is still there. Yes it will be a bit bouncy in the rear but you will be ok for a short drive over some 2x4 blocks or something else to simulate bumps.
