H3 Strange Noise coming from suspension area

So i noticed the other day that my H3 started making a noise, sounding like a low roar coming from the suspension area. The truck would shake at about 30mph then the roar would start and stay while i had my foot on the gas pedal. anytime i took my foot off the gas the sound would go away. If I used the brake in any way the noise would return. So under load from pressing the gas pedal or from braking the noise would be very loud but while coasting it wouldn't sound at all. Took it to my mechanic and we thought it was the cv axles, he changed axles and nothing, no change. So i decided to take it to the dealership where i got the truck from yesterday and after talking to the tech there he said it may be the ujoint. so after changing the ujoints in the rear the problem has completely gone away. Posting this on here to see if anyone else has had the same problem and maybe save them some time and some money.

Thinking diff mount and/or engine mounts. You've got parts moving under torque, which means something is moving that shouldn't be and causing a conflict.

I'm having the same issues. Will post up once I can figure out where it's coming from.
