I'd say that you have a CV or U joint on its way out. Check all sahft boots for wear tear and cracks, check for grease nipples, most likely will have to replace worn parts by now if they're cracking like that.

I've not heard any noises yet and I'm not an expert on the situation but, You may want to check you diff fluid. Also I'm not certain but check for grease nipples in the u-joints. If they are on the 2wd grease them and see if the noise stops. If all else fails call the dealer and see what they say.

Does anyone else that owns a shaft drive utility hear a slight popping noise from the driveshaft when going over rough terrain or such...??

I guess nobodys going to look at this

well its only about 3 months old, and its under warranty...so i should just tell my dealer to check out the bearings?

It might be either the swingarm bearing/bushings or axel bearings cause on my recon both the swingarm and axel bearing wore out from mostly mud and some of the rough trail riding. so you might want to cheak them out. it starts out as a slight poping and gradually gets worse entil you are forced to replace them

That sound like a good idea. It might be that the swingarm needs to be greased and tightened up a little
