Have you checked the oil level in the axle otherwise I would have thought that it was a bearing starting to wear a little have known axles whine for years so if you can put up with it then leave alone...bt the oil level is worth checking....ford spec is SQM2C - 9002 - AA it takes 1.3 litres but the level should be just level with the filler plug hole when you remove the filler plug .
