I finally tracked down the noise. The shift linkage goes underneath the carpet on the drivers side and it has a plastic holder that it attaches to. My cable was out of the holder and directly on the metal floorpan. The drivetrain noise was traveling up the cable and spread throughout the floor. When I put the cable back into the holder the noise went away. It was a completely harmless noise. I really hope this helps someone else out there who is having just as much trouble finding the noise as I did.

How can you tell if a rear end is out?

To determine if a rear end is out, listen for unusual noises such as grinding or whining while driving, especially when accelerating or turning. Check for fluid leaks under the vehicle, as low or contaminated differential fluid can indicate issues. Additionally, inspect for play in the wheels by shaking them; excessive movement could signal worn bearings or a failing differential. If you experience vibrations or handling issues, it's also a sign that the rear end may need attention.
