check the final drive lube level, make sure that's good.

if that's ok then the problem probably is a worn worm gear that only makes noise when its moving slowly.

To make sure its the drive and not tranny itself, see if it makes the same noise in 1st with the clutch in rolling it around.

Good luck.
