    I had a similar problem years ago with my 2000 2wd ex cab and the dealer couldn't figure it out either. It would only show up when I was carrying a passenger and I hit a small bump. Turned out that it was the heat shield above the catalytic converter rubbing the bottom of the body. All I did was bend the heat shield back away from the body and it's been fine since.
