I have a thump, clunk, rattle from under truck from even the slightest road bump. Walking up from behind one day,
I saw an exhaust tip looked off. I nudged it with my toe, and it was flopping around. Drivers side broken off at muffler,
pass side 90% broken off. Replaced both tail and muffler. Hangers for muffler replaced and all others good. I thought cool, got this. Next drive noise still there no change.
It has been on a lift, stands several times. I cannot find anything loose or flopping.The entire rear suspension has been replaced, except springs.
That's where my thread on replacing shocks came from. After suspension the noise seems to be a little louder.
Maybe slightly stiffer has amplified noise? Cab mounts solid. There is a rubber or plastic strip between cab and bed,
doesn't look to be enough to make any noise.
Heat shield over muffler tight, also blankets under cab.
I can take pics if needed. Listen to video, site won't take MP4's so trying youtube.
Thanks,
Jim
