    Do you have a sway bar? I've heard a similar sound coming from my passenger side front when cornering hard at a fast-ish speed and found some witness marks on the sway and coil.

    I'm going to replace the lower even though there is no visible play. Between this and the door seals creaking my truck sounds like rolling wreckage.

    Seriously though, you don't think it's the radiator support like you thought before?

    It sounds heavier than just that light sheet metal moving around. Tightened the bushing bolts, no change. Kinda stumped.

    Wouldn't hurt to try checking skids, slider, bumper etc. Long shot but easy to rule out

    On the Death Valley trip in December, @jberry813 told @jAndyMendo, @tetten, @theed and I scary stories about Icons by the campfire. I thought he was just a hater, but then he started dropping facts, figures; real life experiences rebuilding many of them, high operating pressures, blown o-rings, special tools, design flaws... I still have nightmares. I would regurgitate that info but Andy busted out the tequila, I was out of beer, and shit got ugly.

    not trying to bash on Icons, but the story was very convincing.

    I painted my icons blue. It's the only way to live with the shame of owning icons.

    The Icon table in the NorCal lunchroom is small, and now it has one leg that clunks. Woe is me.

    Any of you guys interested in the rear storage bins from my truck? They are taking up too much of my limited storage space. If I can't find someone to give them to, they will be getting tossed.
    Holler if ya have a use for em :thumbsup:
