Axle issues?

How can I tell w/o removing the axle if it's bad? My rear right side makes the loudest clicking at random times... when I downshift, when I turn to either side, when I brake (hard) it goes away.

Ideas?

The wheel doesn't shake. I jacked it up and tried my hardest to wiggle it.

If it was the wheel bearing, I think the wheel would shake and such when I jack the back up and shake the shit outa it.

I concur, it defininantly sounds like a WB to me too unless your brakes are making funny noises.

Sometimes you can hear them going bad long before they get sloppy.
