Did you look to see if the spring perches on the rearend housing are bent or broken?
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

 I can just about bet that the housing is twisting.

I noticed the other day that my pinion angle has changed. My pinion snubber was about 1 1/2 inches below my floor pan. Now the snubber is up against the floor. My pinion seal is leaking now, great..just had the rear rebuilt bout a yr ago. Anyone ever had this issue? Everything looks straight.  Could the issue be weak springs (which are original by the way).
What rear end? I've seen Dana's with broken plug welds spin the housing. The weld were springy enough to allow it to somewhat spring back, but not before destroying a drive shaft, pinion yoke and overrunning clutch. Could also be the perches, or fatigued springs.
