    I can't describe it any better than the videos. Drives strait, no drifting, no clunks. Just the noise. I'm thinking control arm bushing but it seems to be the flexing of the frame that causes it. I can also hear the noise coming from where the skid bolts to the trans support. Truck is a 2013 with OME 885s and nitrochargers with 255/75-17.

    I love this forum. A thread about whether or not to put white letters outside on tires could go 64 pages. When something get beyond that..nothing.

    I listened to your recordings but got nothing. Try putting your hand on the LCA connections to the frame and other possible places while you have someone turn the wheel. Find out if you can feel it move or pop.

    Use your hand or a stethoscope to isolate, it could be a ball joint it could be a bushing.
