I noticed that my mufflers do occasionally rub on the driveshaft. Is it possible that this could be the noise that I'm hearing? And why uphill? I expect the noise from that to be more high pitched. The noise that I'm hearing has a somewhat deep sound.

Maybe your gears working hard? are you in the right gear when going uphill?

Did the Noise get muffled or did it go louder?
have you had any problems with your exhuast?
Maybe any loose bolts? or cracks?

Could be some loose bolts so just double check all the pipes
