Default NEW RANDOM RATTLE NOISE Need Advice

I've got this random rattling noise coming from what I believe is the drivers underside. I've gone through and checked all heat shields, breaks, wheel bearings, DS. After much research on here I have yet to find someone describe a sound like this one.

It occurs randomly sometimes under load , sometimes coasting, sometimes turning, Clutch in , Clutch out, even coasting with the Jeep shut off and once it starts it does not stop until I come to a complete stop. Upon moving forward again the noise is gone until randomly down the street it will pop and start again until a full complete stop.

I was able to finally take a video and catch the sound while rolling into my driveway (beginning of video you can hear the tires as they wind down than you can really hear the rattling as I pull to a complete stop)

Hoping to hear from someone that has seen or heard this issue before but Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

I've got a double cardan JE Reel rear DS that I installed about 3 months ago. I will be pulling the front stock DS at least to eliminate that as a possible cause.
