    Carrier Bearing ? Do you have a two piece drive shaft ?

    Could it be that empty keg rolling around in the bed ?

    or low grease (if any) in the rearend- when they get low and dry they will pop or actually blow up the gears inside- not a pretty sight! You may want to take a look at that, the gears will fracture then break.
