If the noise is directly behind the shafts the problem is most likely in the differential. Check to see if any part of the c/v shaft is turning. If only the inner part of the shaft is turning the shaft is probably broken.

Why does my reverse just grind when i shift in to reverse?

This is a manual transmission car, I presume. If it's an auto, you have a big problem! Grinding could mean that something inside the transmission is failing. Or it could mean that your transmission fluid is low. OR, it could mean that your clutch is worn or is out of adjustment. Grinding usually means that the clutch is not disengaging properly when you push the clutch pedal, or perhaps, a synchronizer has failed. Whatever the case, If I were you, I'd get the car to my mechanic and have her looked at.
