2002 Blazer Sputtering/Jerking @ Low Speed Sign In

I have a 2002 Chevy Blazer that when I am going at a very slow speed, like 10 mph and under or barely press on the gas, I can feel a slight jerking/sputtering that seems to be coming from the rear end. What could this be?

Sputtering from the rear end?...only thing that I can think of that would "sputter" back there is exhaust...
Jerking feeling?..possibly a tire problem?..belt shifted in the tire..would be noticeable at low speeds....mellows at higher speeds from centrifical force..
Rotate the tires to the front..see if the problem moves/gets more noticeable...felt in the steering wheel...

Just some thoughts...
See what the others might say..

Another thought: Check the U-Joint?? It's been ages since I've had a bad one but they can go - if that bad you could just twist with the driveshaft in place and bet it would show - or metal dust in area??
