    Can't figure this out...
    It is literally killing me, I can't stand it. I just put in 5100's in the front. Haven't had the rear end apart in about 9 months and it hasnt made this sound before. I have done a little snow drifting with it but that is it. Any ideas? I am 99% sure it is the rear. Also, if I grab either rear tire with both hands and try to shake the car back and forth, I get somewhat of the same noise but i really have to shake it hard so I'm not convinced the two noises are related...

    HELP?!?!?!?

    My first thought as well.

    Also check your shock bolts.

    Pshh...eff those shocks, they were like $10 a piece extra with my lift and they are stiff as hell. I'm pretty sure they put sand in them instead of oil...

    I'm having this problem too. I think my leaf springs wore out the pad that's in between. I can never duplicate the prob at stand still but when I hit a little bump I can hear it

    They may be stiff, but the nuts could be a little loose, make sure the bushings have a little compresssion on them on the top stem.
