Better take the differential cover off and check the oil for shavings. It sounds like bearing wear or gear wear. How many miles do you have on your truck. Another thought, jack up each side of the truck, and grasp each tire and move it side to side and up and down, if there is any movement at all you go have an axle bearing going bad. If the axle bearing(s) are going bad, the axle seal will be leaking into the brake assembly and appear wet. Have a friend help if you need it or find a shop with a good reputation.
