Carrier Bearing Going Out

Lately, I have noticed a squeaking coming from the back of my truck upon acceleration. I also noticed that there was a slight vibration on the highway the first time since the squeaking. Does the bearing need to be greased through a fitting? What do you think?

You probably have a U-joint going bad.
