Just wondering, did u replace the u-joints only on your drive shafts cause you should have 3 more in your front axel setup, my truck did the same thing till i replaced the u joints in the front, better off to replace all three of them than just one. Just my 2 cents, hope it helps.

FOUND IT!!!!!!!!!

The fan was hitting the guard on the drivers side. Pulled up in the drive way the other day and it kept on clicking even when I put it in park.....
After looking everywhere below....looked underneath the hood and felt the fan guard...20 minutes later......it was fixed.
I guess I need to check out all of the frame rivets and motor mounts..I didn't expect the engine to move around that much when the truck was in awkward positions or accelerating.

After new u-joints...bearings...calipers...rotors....clips of all types and sizes..and other parts.... Well, it needed them anyway (I keep telling myself.)

Thanks all!
