Default Rear end ???

Just returned from a 80 drive with 0 problems. Went to put the 30 coupe. in the garage and Somethings binding. Car will move forward but binds backing up. I raised the rear wheels off the ground and problem goes away. Has a Mitchell overdrive. ???

possible pinion bearing nuts loose, driving the pinion gear is pushed into the bearing, in reverse it would try to screw itself deeper into the ring gear causing binding
