No real rush here, trying to be slow and steady to figure this out @SICAMG

I know I can figure this out for you by just driving the car. My son is now in North Atlboro MA.
About 1 hour from you but dont know when my next visit is

I can call you tommorow as well if you would like to talk about your issue. I still have your number.

Quick update - differential is coming out, just to try to eliminate it from the list. Will have a pro shop take a look at it, perhaps do bearings, definitely replacing axle seals.

Hello Benzor1, any further updates on this? My problem seems very similar and would love to know if you figured it out. You have obviously put a ton of time and effort into it.

Rebuliding the diff did fix this issue for me ! I also did rear sway bar links at same time (but unlikely the sway bar was the issue). I did not replace the axles, as the boots were intact.

Thanks for the reply but thank you mostly for being so detailed with your process and findings. Sounds like you did much of the work yourself, were you able to do the rear diff or did a shop take care of it?

I took the diff out myself, but a shop did all the rebuilt work : all the bearings and seals inside it. Was about $900 in parts and labor at the shop.
