I have a 2002 Dodge Durango SLT. My rear tires locked up and thought it was the drum breaks that broke and caused the issue. Changed the breaks it wasn't the issue. Horrible smell coming from vehicle and loud grinding sound from rear end. Not sure wht the issue is. One mechanic said it was a u joint another said the rear drive shaft. It sounds like metal grinding against metal. Need help, thank you.

You have a differential failure. You need a good shop, not the ones you said, that will correctly diag it for you and give you options
