It's not leaking any gear oil.

You have to determine what is making the noise, obviously. You will have to start taking things apart to determine what is making the noise. Jack it up and block it. Start the motor and run in gear and listen to different areas to determine where the noise is coming from. Be careful as rotating units can seriously hurt you. If it can be determined the noise is inside the diff, then take the cover off and look for metal filings in the oil. It will almost look like silver sparkles in the oil. If the noise is not coming from the diff, remove either the wheels or the dirveshaft to check brake areas or the U-joints for the problem. If it is the diff, this would not be a job for a beginner as there is knowledge and special tools needed here. Brakes are fairly easy, but also a safety concern with special tools required. u-joints only need a vise and a hammer. Good luck.

Try this jack up the rear and pull off the tires and brake drums. With transmission in neutral and turn the drive shaft and listen for any grinding. If you do, you should take of the rear end cover and look for chips in the gears or metal in the oil, very simple to do and low cost. You will want to turn the out side drie axles to and listen for noise. It could be as simple as the breaks to.

Could be loose brake shoes or a mangled differential or the transmission is going bad.
