Re: Humming noise with crackling from rear end, inability...
That is not a good noise. you will need to remove the rear cover on the rear end I think you will find a lot of brokenpieces, sounds like you need a ring and pinion gear set......SORRY

rear end (I use and electronic stethoscope to find all that)
but rear end. is a big place..
bad U-joints top that list (repeat)
bad axle bearings.
brakes bad, there. or the warning devices there for early brake warn.
bad 3rd member, gear sets or bearings in same or pinion.
my guess is car is moving right>
if not moving ,its dying rat up in there.or loose parts.
two things you want to check u joints at drive shaft and also check your rear end check for play where drive shaft joins to rear end and transmission let me know
most likely if its a hum it could be tires , if its a roar it could be the drive train
support the vehicle on jack stands , start the engine , put in drive and let it idle, if noise is gone ...its the tires if not check the drive train ...start with fluid levels
This rear end needs to be replaced or re-built. The gears and or bearings are worn/shot. May be able to get a complete rear end from a Junk yard for much less, one in good condition. Good Luck
It sounds like you have a bad wheel berring in the rear, but they are a sealed unit, with no where to grease them. If you want to quiet it, you need to replace it, but first i would reccomend jacking it up on the wheel you believe to be making the noise and spin it and shake it, just to be certain it is the one you want to replace.
Good luck
if it makes the noise more at speeds around 100kmph than you most likey need a wheel bearing but if its noticable aspeeds under 20 kmph than its probable a u-joint
