Wheel bearing

One of my rear wheel bearings has gone, but as always its very hard to tell which one when driving.
I've jacked the car up to spin the wheels but the brakes are dragging too much to help.

So before I start messing with calipers etc, any tips to make life easier? Its very wet this weekend, and next weekend I'm out of the country so I've got a couple of weeks before I start

Thanks!
 
Jack up one side with a good trolley jack put it in 2nd gear and drive it slowly,it wont go anywhere due to the diff . you will hear which wheel bearing is noisey ,btw if you have plate type lsd it will f**K off on you ha ha . when you jack it up one side at a time if one wheel spins freely you will be ok to test it this way .
