Could be a bent wheel/wheel out of balance,It can be a pinion bearing a axle seal or even the u joints.

What kind of noise? Whining, clicking, grinding?

The last noise I had from the rear end was too much chili.

It's a grinding noise. I have replace both wheel bearings and u joints pinion bearing seems to be fine. wheels run true and the tires are brand new

Pinion bearing.
Wasted a lot of time and effort because I didn't want accept that result. Mine really started howling about 40mph. Not that noticeable below that. Did it myself and it came out fine but you might want to go to a reputable shop.

Hey guys I have replaced my transfer case with a used one and I think it made it worse. Now there's a bad vibration at 15 mph through 35 mph. Very frustrated
