If the car has had a hard time it might just be a good idea to get the car on a hoist and check all of the rear end bushes, tie-rods etc. Then start looking at more expensive possibilities...

could be any number of things.
Internal diff parts, cv's, tailshaft couplings.
I'd be focusing on the moving parts personally.
