Default Grinding Noise

When im driving, I can hear my axle bearings grinding. My question how can I tell which one it is? While driving I cant tell. Do you guys know if this is just a normal thing on our cars?
Help me please this noise is driving me crazy!!

I think you would have to get someone to drive it slowly while you ran along beside it listening for that nasty grinding noise.
