the back bearings can play tricks, pull the halfshaft out and then check them
the h/s supports the rear and take any play out when you wobbl the wheel so it makes you think they hunky dory when infact you got a collapsed inner  :oops:  :oops:
if that fails drop the oils out of the diffs and see what they like
and while you at it, check what the cv grease is like
