Did you install an aftermarket center bearing or NOS? Think back very carefully and try to recall exactly what you did on the installation.

Are all the nuts and bolts tight?
Are transmission and motor mounts tight?
Do you have "anti chatter rods?"

Does it happen "just before the car stops" with your foot on the brake pedal?

Does it happen when rear wheels are off the ground when on jack stands?

The loose wheel nut theory sounds very possible. Check that first.

Check the tightness of all the nuts and bolts you removed to replace the center bearing, if possible.

Pull rear drums and check wheel bearings etc.

Are all the rear radius rod nuts and bolts tight?
