that sounds more like symptoms of the dreaded axle click since it occurs to you when you load/unload the rear axles.
it sounds most like a metallic clicking noise but that's the most i can say without hearing it.

if it's really bad, it will click every time you accelerate and let go of the pedal, and also going from a forward gear to reverse and vice versa.
should be able to hear it driving next to a kerb with the windows down

i've eliminated all my cabin rattles.
i have tried to fix my axle click problem, even following the FSM but i think the torque spec for the nut is insufficient. currently have the right side done up to 115nm, left side is on the factory spec 105nm.

dude take off ur wheel, start tighening all the nuts and bolt, do not over tighten them just look for the one that is loose check all of em, on brakes on knuckles, on suspension might be undder tencion but it should be farely loose, and look for bad bushings that are worn also must be changed am shure u will find something.
