Default Rear wheel bearings?

I have a "rumbling" noise coming from the rear end. All 6 u-joints are new, plus the rear end. The wheel bearings is the only thing left. I noticed it little before changing out the rear end and u-joints, but had forgot about it. It does seem to be getting louder, which makes me think it is the wheel bearings. Would you be able to feel it by jacking up the wheel and turning the wheel by hand?

Yes.... more so if you disconnect the 1/2 shaft.
