The determination of "differential" or "wheel bearing" can be assisted if the following question can be answered:

Does the noise almost go away entirely when the drive shaft is unloaded?

The drive shaft is unloaded when you are cruising along at a steady speed and you lift your right foot ever so slightly so that the vehicle just begins to slow down. If you lift too far, the shaft will load up in the opposite direction and the noise may return.

Please attempt to reduce or eliminate the noise via your right foot, in the manner described, and report back.
