It's impressive how much noise the factory bushings muffle. I bet it's been making that noise for some time. It's possible that they put the wrong gear oil in or too little when they were servicing the diff last. It might be in your best interest to freshen up the rear end with new stuff anyway.

Also, if someone failed to tighten your driveshaft to the diff well enough or skimped out on lock washers, that could also cause that noise.
