probly the leaf springs rubbing or maybe an e break cable. could also be shock bushings or sway bar bushings if you have a rear sway bar. also look at your drive shaft for spots where its rubbing by the U joints. If you have a lift and your driveshaft angle can be too much and cause the peaces to rub. What have you done to try to find the problem?
