Default rear end making a poping noise

My other rear end made the same poping sound first thing in the morning when i put it in reverse as soon as i let out on the clutch to back out of my drive way it would go "pop". Now every once in a while when i get on it and right back off of the gas it goes "pop". I was wondering if it is normal for every one else or am i going to be putting in a another rear end soon.

Is it more of a click than a pop? If so, just tighten the spindle nut. The best way to do this would be putting on some grease on the nut where it meets the hub. That would give you a better accuracy when you torque the nut down. Also, I think the stock spec is 180 lb/ft, but I'd go somewhere north of 200.

If it's still in warranty, take it to a Honda dealer. They will do the lube/retorque proceedure for you, it's a known issue.
