grinding now not only in 1st but reverse too 700

I posted a few weeks ago that my 740 Turbo wagon (90) was grinding in 1st gear, couldn't hear it in other gears. I noticed driving up hills in San Francisco. Well I went kayaking yesterday and had an opportunity to back up a boat ramp, and was surprised to hear the noise in reverse. I'm wondering if this could mean that my transmission could be off the hook, and I should be looking more closing at bearings between the transmission and the rear wheels that are heavily loaded when I go up hills. Any thoughts on how I can locate my problem more precisely without taking too many things apart?
