I've got an 06 awd, just out of nowhere it started making a sound just like a sloppy u joint from the rear, I thought it was maybe the carrier bearing so I removed the drive shaft and it's still there. Sounds just like s u joint banging around. My next guess would be rear cv axles. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check the axle boots for cracks - could be a broken boot and dry joint. Also see if you can wiggle the axle or rear suspension parts and find slack anywhere.
