Default Chattering noise from rear

Hey guys put a lift on this week a 3.25 rough country and now there's a chattering from my axel area not sure if its the coil or axel or the e brake cable not sure if any body has had this problem. Any thoughts or links on how to fix or correct the problem?

I had a rattle coming from the rear of my jk as well.. it turned out to be a loose shock mount bolt. I had someone jump up and down on my trailer hitch and looked under to find it.. id start by checking if all the bolts are tight most of the time thats what it is

Ok I've checked all the bolts and nuts tighten as much as I could still a chatter. Is it possible that the shock could move around to make that sound.
I had my dad jump up and down on the hitch I didn't hear or see anything it's freakin me out that I can't find where it's coming from

The sound you are describing is exactly the sound that the rear seat of my 2012 two door Rubicon makes when it is flipped up. I thought for sure the emergency brake cable was rubbing until my kids told me what the noise was.
