Torque converter going bad?

Have any of you heard about the tc's on the 99's having a problem? My truck rattles really loud at an idle, it does quiet down when I am driving. I want to fix this it drives me nuts, But I want to make sure I fix the right thing. Is there a performance difference with different torque converters?

Thanks for your help.

If you think it might be the flex plate AND the TC...buy yourself a flexplate from an online parts place, and then drive up to BTS in Arkansas. You'll never pay another dime to fix your tranny after that!
