I'm betting on half shaft....jack up the rear end (with jack stands) and check the half shaft boots for cracks. Then remove the wheel, and remove the 13mm bolt inside the hub. Then, using a thick dowel or piece of pipe, tap out the axle from the hub. Then check the CV joint. If it is stiff to move around or has a lot of play in the joint then it needs to be replaced.
