    Is it from around the steering box or O/S/F wheel area?

    If so, it could be the reinforcement inside the chassis flexing. There's a mod to drill a few holes in the rail & weld it to stop the flex.

    I went through a bit of this process quite a while ago, things back there can act like a big sounding fork.
    Creaks and cracks can come from dirt and muck in the tail shaft spline, re tensioning the axle nuts as the axle splines can creak in the hubs. Uni joint at top of tail shaft.
    Mine creaks every now and again under stress,

    If the diff oil has seen proper servicing I doubt it would contribute to a creak,,

    maybe uni's?
