    As stated, the front driver side wheel sounds like its dragging aluminum cans. I jacked up the truck and spun the wheel and there's a sound but not like what it sounds like when moving.

    Its the clinking sound you can hear in the video.

    Any ideas?

    I just purchased an 03 doublecab and noticed the exact same thing. With the window down and driving 20 mph it would make that sound every couple seconds or so. Interested in what it could be also.

    I was thinking CV joint but it doesn't do it when its up on jacks. Only when there is pressure on the wheels. I'm taking it in to get looked at today. I'll post up what they tell me.

    Well it ended up being a bad wheel bearing. Another $600.00 towards the Tacoma....again....
