Knock in rear end not sure what it could be!

[Sswyers]

Hey guys I got a 2015 ram 1500 with a 6" fabtech lift, 1.5" body and bds rear springs. On my passenger side over sudden bumps I here a clunk in my rear end on the drivers side only as if I had a rim loose. I've checked the tq on rims and that's not the case I can grab the rear tire and shake in and out and hear a clunk. I know these truck have side axel play but one side(driver) is more noticeable than the other. The truck it self only got 20k on it and the lift maybe 2k. Any ideas what it could be?

Are you sure your parking brake cable is not loose bouncing hitting frame?

i get a clanking type sound coming from the drivers side also when going over bumps. I just ignore it. I have a superlift 6"

I had an annoying clunk on my passenger side going over bumps, turned out to be busted shock.

I got a spare set of shocks maybe I'll try that. And It's not the park brake its deff coming from the rear axel area

Any update? Did you ever figure out what the clunk was?

 

[Sswyers]

Nope nothing yet I'm away at work and home in a week hoping I can find something / or someone who knows lifts to take a look, dealer couldn't find anything:/

I had the same problem. I looked back in my rear view and it was my ex-wife banging on my tailgate. I high tailed it right out of there.

Never heard that noise again...

i solved what my knock was. Mine was actually the e brake line bouncing. Not sure how to stop it.

Could you get some transmission hose, slice it down the middle and then wrap it over the brake line?

For what its worth. Mine cluncks in the rear going over speed bumps. Prob doesn't help that I don't slow down for them either?

Hahaha I dont either

Uhm I'm not sure I'd have to check it out more. I'm pretty sure the part that clunks has a spring of some sort on it so idk if it needs to be able to move freely.
