Did you put your new driveshaft in?
Did you add fluid when the rear end was rebuilt? j/k
It could be an axle bearing or something minor.

alright injury report.... i took apart the rear axel. my bearings look really good no play in them my seals look good too. soo i went to my 3rd member and i think i founded the noice it looks like the dust sheild on the pinion is lose. and spinning on the member. does that mean that the pinion is lose?
Mine does that and evey rig I have had with a dust shield has come loose and rattles around. They are a lame bit of thinking when they made those. Pound it on or cut it off. USe some duct tape to hold it temp and see if the sound went away. If it did, you know what it is. Too bad you had to take it all apart.

do i need that dust sheild on the 3rd member? does anyone know if soo let me know.
Do you want weeds wrapped around your pinion seal?
As a trail repair to get you home, I would say no.
As a Dailey Driver and a Wheeling rig, I say Yes.
BudKing probably has one.

Do they make a whisling noise and a high pitch sound?
Mine always clatterd like a braket was loose.
