Default strange rearend noise!!! please help

I have this strange noise coming from the rearend of my car. 99 camaro m6. It has 4.10s. The noise only happens when turning right while off the throttle. As soon as the throttle is touched the noise goes away. I can be just creaping or haulin a$$. Please let me know what I need to do. I thought it was axle bearings, so I installed new bearings yesterday, but no change in noise. It makes no noise at all while turning left. Thanks for the help

The noise is pretty high pitch at speed. Dosn't sound like grinding or anything like that, but at low speed kinda sounds a little like ratcheting i guess. At speed it sounds like the gears are set up wrong, but it dosn't make the noise unless you are turning right.
