Noise Suspension

Just had new full struts installed as well as rear shocks on 04 F150, supercrew. There is a noise that only happens when you hit a bump. I initially thought it was sthe strut boot but having those replaced, and the noise still there means it was not that.

Anythoughts as to what I should look at sounds like something is loose on the front end. Had an alignment done and they said all was tight.

Thoughts to look at?

Thanks

Thanks, that sounds exactly like it. Now to find out if I can do this. Does this require a new front end alignment?

I am not sure if it requires an alignment afterward or not but I would be willing to bet you could do it yourself and then have someone align it for you afterward.
