Default Rear end whine

I have a sound coming from the passenger side rear heard in the cab when driving. The sound can be described as a whining noise when you accelerate and it stops when you take your foot off the gas. Everything was changed out in this car and it drives like a bat out of hell, I just don't know what that whining is, could it be the right half shaft? All the u joints have been changed, spindle bearings replaced, rebuilt rear end, new brakes, etc. The sound is only on the passenger rear wheel when accelerating, anyone know what it could be?

if the whine is in the differential, on acceleration , its usually misaligned or improper depth ..or worn ring and pinion.. if it whines on deceleration, its usually pinion bearings
