Been having this noise for ages, used to only be over bumps now it happens whilst driving on even slightly uneven roads, it's quite noticeable, but cannot see anything obvious. Nor can I tell if its front or rear... Definately outside the truck tho... I have no rear anti roll bars, fronts are solid, no exhaust to chachink.. Ive poked my head underneath n hit all sorts, everything is solid...

Only reason I'm a little concerned is because it seems to have gotten louder in the past few days... :nenau oh and it's not shockies either as all have been changed ect and no effect :thumb2
 
Might sound daft but it couldn't be stones getting kicked up & hitting your bondage bars or sills could it ? My tyres are quite bad at times for holding onto stones then all of a sudden they fly out & you hear them clatter off the sills, wheel arches & rear bumper:doh

Good idea, but defo not stones. It's something loose bouncing up and down :nenau

It's gotten progressively worse, was present before bumpers and arbs were removed just to give an accurate idea - i e, not the work that's been done...
 
Front ARB drop-links? Heat shield over exhaust? Front bash plate (mine had a similar noise, found there were only three screws holding it instead of five).

I had the same issue.........truck sounded like a skeleton having a w*nk in a biscuit tin :sly
 
I had this noise on my mistral ..... was infuriating ..... it turned out to a a metal guard over the " knuckle joint " on the propshaft ..... hammer , punch and three hits later ...... problem solved :thumb2
 
Ok these are sounding promising, don't think it's my bash plate but the other two sound about right :naughty
