ok, plow is off the truck and the noise is gone. will check in sat when plow is on for its washing if the noise is back. is it the weight from the plow making the hubs cry?

I dont have any exp. with plows, but i wouldnt think a plow would be to heavy for a 350. I would get under it and look around, maybe your bumper moved and was rubbing something? just check to see if something might have been pushed around. hope i helped.
