If you can get it up on jack stands or a lift, grab each tire top and bottom and give it a good shake. Should be no movement. Repeat with hands at 3 and 9 o'clock. Take a good size rubber mallet and start whacking your suspension arms, listening for rattles and looking for movement. This technique tends to find only grossly worn items.

Most of my rattle issues, which were similar to yours, came from the metal shielding between the 2nd cat and the header flange. Don't think you have a second cat but give the exhaust system a tentative whack starting with the headers and moving onto the mufflers.
