    If the rattle is the actual arm rest, you can check the mounting bolts and if need be install rubber washers.

    If its the underside of the truck .... no idea.

    Is it only when you're in drive and stopped (i.e at a light)? Goes away when if you shift to N or P?

    Transmission isolator mount? The exaust rubber mounts are easy to inspect for breaks. Have someone turn the wheel back and forth while ur under the truck. Watch it steering rack and lowers arms for movement. Try that and report back
