I think this is it here. I wish I could remember the name of it. Put your hand on it while idling and see if you feel it knocking.

Are we sure the original PO's not experiencing the old transfer case shift handle rattle? Just for kicks, push on the TC shift handle and see if the problem goes away.

Mine was like that too. You have to put your ear very close to the exact area to hear it over the engine noises, but I guess because it is connected to the fire wall it resonates inside the cab. You can feel it more than you can hear it from the engine bay.

HA! by one minute!!
Well i replaced the part last night, took all of 3 minutes. Unfortunately the new part still makes the same sound inside the cab, just not as loud. Knocking sounds drive me crazy so i am going to take the mount off of the firewall and cut a piece of dynamat and put it in between the bracket and the firewall to see if that deadens the sound. i will let you know.
