High pitched whining

I have a this whining that varies according to truck speed and not engine speed. It started about two weeks ago when I went over a speed bump with a little speed. The front axle was relaced so it is not from the front. I looked under the truck and noticed a center support bearing. Do these give any problems? What else might it be?
