hope y’all can see the video, this is my first time to post video..

I have started to hear this “barking” sound coming from under the truck and I have no clue what it might be. It is possibly coming from the middle or slightly to the rear, under the truck..I haven’t been able to pinpoint the source of the sound yet because it happens at random and mostly occurs about a minute after first crank and then may happen again after shut down. I have not noticed it while driving. But its possible I may not be able to hear it, although it’s pretty loud.. It literally sounds like a chihuahua bark...Any ideas?

I have a 2012 ram 2500 5.7 gas engine, ~ 190k

thanks all.

You know... when you see barking in a title, you don’t really think it is going to sound exactly like a dog, but sure enough, you got me.

I'm going to say maybe Torque converter or the flywheel.

I had the flex plate crack on an old car I had back in the 80's and it sounded just like that!
