Re: Clicking noise when accelerating

Can you tell if its coming from the engine compartment or from the rear of the truck? and is it extended cab?

It is coming from the engine compartment. I have a Supercab 4dr.
It's like a clicking noise/rattling noise. I checked the heat shields to see if they were the culprit, but they are all snug and tight.

Does you truck seam to be vibrating more that usual because it could be any of the ujoints on the drive shaft, specialy if its the super cab, the driveshaft is a 2 piece so there are 3 u-joints. Is it a 4wheel drive?

Yeah it is a 4 wheel drive. It doesn't feel like there is more vibration than usual, but then again, I got this truck 3 months ago.
