I've got a rattling sound under normal driving conditions. It sounds like chain rattling around or something. At first thought it was my hitch, but still makes the sound with the hitch removed from the reciever. Of course it's more noticeable with windows down driving close to a median or building. Hard to tell the area, probably towards the back. I've crawled around underneath and shaken most everything, but can't duplicate it.

Any ideas?

i was getting a similar noise, was driving me nuts. at first i thought it wes the torque converter, i crawled underneath and shook the mbrp exhaust pipe, turned out the pipe was hitting the head of a bolt about 4 feet from the down pipe sometimes. ,
fixed it no more noise.

If you turn the bolts in the trans cross member (The two that are in the way) upside down it will eliminate the interferance...

FOUND IT ! It is the brackets that hold the rear sway bar against the axle.They were loose! Take a 15mm socket to tighten! hope that helps!
