Default Low Speed Rattles!

2000 SS Convertible, 67K miles. rattles mid- car to the rear around town at low speed 20-30 MPH. Rougher the street the more consistent the rattles.
The shop can find nothing loose, or clearance issues. Sub-Frames issues? No noise from the front. Rear LCAs and panhard bar are UMI. Torqued and greased.
The rattling sounds widespread. Car is rock solid and smooth on the highway. Any ideas?

Only suspension mods you have are the LCAs and the PHB?

Try switching to the stock parts and see if the rattles go away.

UMI parts were already on the car when I bought it. So, no stock parts. Very little clearance between the exhaust and the heat shields. Rear sits at 26 7/8 in.
with SLP Stage 11 springs. Probably best to just ignore it for now.
