Anyone have any info on this rattle?

About at my wits end with this Jeep.....
Engine swap at 600 miles due to faulty spark plug install. Exhaust issue after the engine swap. Body damage while exhaust was being repaired. Now I have this annoying rattle at acceleration. WTF else can go wrong? Too many issues at just under 7k miles.

I had the exact same thing happen one day for me right around that mileage, but the next day it never happened again or since 4K miles later.

Not hearing a whole lot there, but it could be many things from infamous tailgate rattle to a loose soft/hard-top to a coin under the seat. I know because I've been hunting rattles in my Jeep for a long time. Like someone already said, could also be the exhaust. Best to have someone listen to it while you're driving so you can pinpoint it's location first.

Back in the shop. I'm being told that it's noisy lifters.
