That is good news. I had a rattle in a Johnson 90 after rebuild, turned out to be the latches for the cowling. I used a small dab of silicone to quiet it down. If I read you right, the trim rod is the removeable rod on the clamp that limits the tuck of your outboard. I do not have that rod on any of my Mercs but I do have it on the Johnson. Check to see where the bracket that touches the rod would land without the rod. If there is no problem with interference remove it, it may give you a bit more negative trim for holeshots.
