May be way off but check your axle shaft U joints $14 everywhere, if this noise is not under hard compression of the suspension, like just a slippery climb it could very well be the culprit, check for play in these if they have any play replace them it only takes an hour, a little bit of play in these will make a lot of noise. simple check is put your trans in reverse back up a few feet hold the brakes and shift into drive, aside from the usual noise from putting your tranny into gear when you let off of the brakes and hit the gas lightly you will hear the sound in 2wd or 4wd, if so usually u joint. good luck
