I have a feeling that your rear end gear oil fluid might be low. It sounds like when you let the truck sit over night all the fluid drains off the gears, when there is no fluid it makes a popping sound, socheck your fluid level and see what happens. Unless, you didn't put a lift kit on your truck did you? If you did your fluid might not be low it could just be at a different level point.
