Yes. I took a video of the noise. After looking closer, it's seems like a bigger problem. Sound is coming from the gear box.

I've heard of worn u joints. Sucks too because I haven't heard about any replacement u joints, just the whole shaft... Stupid as all he11. My u joints felt a little notchy at 15k miles, so I'm a little worried about long term.
