Default 2000 cummins, rattle

OK, I have a 5spd in my truck, and when I let the clutch out after shifting up, 80% of the time there is a rattle noise. This noise also happens if I let off the gas at lower RPM's and coast for a little bit. Any ideas?

I got under the truck and checked everything out and they all seemed fine, it sounds like something is wrapped around the driveline, but I cant find anything.

Update: The noise is coming from under the truck, not engine compartment, I have got that far. Like I said before, while taking off, there is a small click sound, then it sounds like something is wrapping around the axle, then when I get up to speed it goes away. When I left off and get into the lower RPM's, there is a rattle noise for a couple seconds, sounds like metal on metal, then it goes away. I have searched my truck bumper to bumper under neath and can not find the issue.

Put your truck on Jack stands and have a friend walk under/around truck while driving to listen for it?
