    Please help me pinpoint this noise @ 7 sec. mark.

    Only happens with the TC engaged
    Happens in 2wd
    Happens when stepping on the clutch/shifting in neutral after being under load.

    Thinking intermediate shaft bearings (hoping, was going to replace soon anyway)

    My experience has been intermediate shaft makes a continuous growl but only under a load. Personally I couldn't tell anything from the video.

    Yeah, I heard what sounded like rattling but......?

    Starting with checking the intermediate shaft is certainly the best idea and the simplest since all you have to do is see if it moves around without taking anything apart.
