Default Poss gearbox failure rs s2 turbo

HI FOLKS,just before i took my car off the road i noticed a rumble sound
coming from it from 40 upwards mph.
so i jacked car so both wheels are in the air to test wheel bearings and noticed both wheels are very hard to spin.
Will this mean that the diff bearings are fooked???

thought it would be,just my luck at the mo.
im half way to stripping the whole car as the engine,box,& loom
is going into my van.
but with me not long being made redundant funds are low till i can
sell some of my other parts or get a job..
