Rattling Noise

Well, I keep finding new noises in my truck. The Failing DMF (which is hopefully coming out tuesday) has so far rattled, knock, and hissed. It's causing a noise similar to an exhaust leak. But now there's a new noise. It's sounds like turning a wheel bearing (dry) around in your hand. When I did my back brakes, I had the drums turned. I thought I had all the metal shavings out, but if I happened to leave some in the hub, would they eat a wheel bearing in just 150 miles? Or is this just another noise from the flywheel? It only does it when you're moving though.

it could be a bad wheel bearing in the back. easiest thing is to jack the truck up and turn it by hand and see what you get

How hard is the inside bearing to change? The outer bearing I know just falls right out.
