Driveshaft rattle

Scorpio 16v Estate 1996. When stationary or moving slowly if I press and depress the gear while in first gear I get a rattle from the rear area. Could this indicate a worn diff or driveshaft joints. All suggestions appreciated.

In general : Diffs tend to whine, driveshaft joints clonk, wheel bearings groan. A rattle sounds more like something loose, worn bushes or the exhaust breaking up ?
