WARDL, I'm glad you figured out the problem. Should you ever think it is a wheel bearing issue, a quick way to check is to raise the rear wheels of the ground and see if it has play from side to side. Running the drive train while the wheels are jacked up will most likely not help diagnose a bad hub/wheel bearing noise because you need weight on the assembly to replicate the condition. Not to mention that falling of the jacks while running the drivetrain would be an ass puckering experience... I hope you never have to replace the bearings, but just in case...
