does this noise happen if you are in park/neutral and you ramp up the revs? if you coast in neutral while rattling (So while moving) does it go away?

Also I’ve noticed it does it often when going up a hill

If you took the audio as video on your phone the easiest thing is to upload it to youtube and link it in the forum. If your having trouble doing that I can give you a step by step.

If this truck has a catalytic converter the noise could be coming from there. Had that issue on my SSR.

My mistake, I see the converter was changed. Timing or a cracked flexplate would be my guess.

I hate when that happens!

I work next to a humongous rail road crossing and absolutely LOVE making fun of people who have shiny paint or mega sized black wheels , big boomin assed stereos but their junk all becomes teh ghetto rattlin their 50 thousand dollar truck over a train track. Plastic garbage rattle traps.

Ehh. Keep drivin it, prolly supposed to make that noise. Means it's runnin good is all. Try turnin the radio up. Only does it over bumps anyways.

Most folks simply upload their video to youtube then post the link, like Robyn suggested. It dont gotta be hard.
