Sounds like your differential is going bad again.
You say you had it changed once before, was it a dealer install or a used diff installed by a local shop? Not that it really matters provided the mechanic doing the work checks the rear differential for compatability. I've seen many diffs go bad on 4x4's due to mis-matched gear RATIOS .
If you don't match them correctly you will have premature failure or a quick failure for severely incompatible ratios.
The first thing that you should check is the tag on diffs and the transfer case to see if they work together or you will have more failures.
This may not be the case with your vehicle, just something I've seen a few times and may be worth a look.
Whenever I change front/ rear diffs, or a transfer case, the ratio is the first thing I look at. Very close ratios will work, there is a very small margin of error though. Unless you are the original owner you may not know if a diff/case was changed, especially if the tags are gone.
You can find the factory ratio info on the door jamb plaque if you want to know what should be there.
