    I just removed the running boards yesterday, and ever since a creaking sound has appeared on the floorboard of the driver's side. The sound only happens during turns and on bumpy terrain. I've looked under the truck several times and can't find anything. Thinking maybe its the stiff suspension? Anyone else have this problem?

    Yeah kept looking and it turned out to be where the bracket and chassis met. Tightened up and no more sound
