Fixing Those DAMN rattles!

Yeah no problem! I'll have to do this eventually, I completely forget every time I go and pull the stereo.

 

I have a lower frequency vibration that's intermittent at low speeds and then again at around 40 mph. Annoys my wife more than me...she thinks every used vehicle should sound like it just came out of the factory. But I'm willing to hunt it down...any ideas? My initial thoughts would be some sort of guard or something underneath.

 

The only vibe (I'll separate vibes from rattles) I've experienced was around 40-60 mph. Turns out I needed to get my aftermarket wheels road force balanced.

 

Hmmm. I guess the best way I can describe this is a low-frequency groan that doesn't always occur. My thinking that it might be some kind of guard underneath is based solely on listening to "Car Talk" for many years -- and this sort of thing being a common ailment often mentioned in a general sort of way.

Since it's cold as hell and there's snow on the ground again (Wisconsin), I'm not about to crawl under there...but Spring is right around the corner.

 

Have you lifted your truck?

 

Not with my back. LOL No, stock suspension afaik. I posted a pic in the new member's section.
