RE: rear end noise
Chattering in corners is from the clutches in your diff. They are either worn or the friction modifiers in your fluid is shot.

RE: rear end noise
I had to replace my 8.8 a while back do to the same problem... it was chattering when cornering to the left... took it apart and found all of the internals (gears and all) chewed to heck... lucky the axels where still good and for about 700 dollars, I got a new 8.8 to throw them in... I would recommend going that route unless you know a really good and cheap shop to bring your car to. I have seen a lot of shops mess up when trying to fix problems in the rear differential (my two cents worth)…
