    I have no idea but I just had the TSB done and have the same issue. I cannot reproduce the sound by jumping in the bed, just by going over bumps in the road

    Anyone know what this could be?

    What about the bolts on the new leaf pack? Wasn't there someone on here that the bolt was put in the wrong way and it rubbed on the frame?

    funny this is brought up. I noticed a rattling noise when going over bumps after I got my Super 44 installed. I figured the exhaust needed some extra hangers. Then the rattling went away. Then I noticed a slight squeal/chirp. I thought it was my rear suspension.

    But when I should shook the truck to see if it was the suspension I couldn't hear anything. This threw me for a loop so I took it to the dealership. Turns out I was missing a bolt and nut on the passenger side rear suspension. I don't think the dealership torqued them correctly and it just became loose and eventually fell out.

    Dealership fixed it for me.

    Thanks for the feedback guys. Im going to check my shock and spring bolts to ensure they are torqued.
