I have a rub sound in the rear of the van. Its starts at 30mph and its constant at all speeds.I have checked the back brakes, replaced axle bearings. Is there a bearing in the diierential that could be rubbing or the ujoints

I have the same problem. I ruined a $95 tire by having too much weight in one corner of a service van full of tools and test equipment. Jack the rear end off the ground on both sides on jack stands and start it and let it idle in drive and watch your tires. I had one that rotates orbitally and wobbles badly.
