You could use dynamat it is sound deading material and place it under the panels in the truck. Also like everyone else said make sure everything is screwed down. I have the same problem with my subs to.

One thing that helped my insanity while driving my XJ is always keep the rear seat folded down unless someone is sitting in it. Mine rattles and squeaks at the slightest bump if its up with no weight on it.
Also, wrap the metal post that the liftgate latch latches to in duct tape to stop that rattle.

then dynamat is your best bet for your rattling problem here is a link to thier site http://www.dynamat.com/ . The Xj's already have sound absorbing material inside but what is the specs of your box? how many watts are you pushing?
my sub box is pressed against my back seat as well so it dont shake
but i dont have the money for dynomax at the moment,i was kinda wanting a quick fix,but would bigger rubber blocks in were the hatch meets the body keep it from rattling?

I didnt have any rattles or anything when I had 800 watts running in my.. but I got rid of my system because It took up too much room in the back.
