Rattling Noise behind cab
 
I tried searching in the archives for this thread as I know i've seen it before. Sorry for bringing it up again but I couldnt find this in my search.

I've got a 2007 Reg. Cab 150 4x4 with about 45000 km's on it. For the last couple of months I hear a rattling noise from under the truck right behind the cab. I've crawled under it and had a look around but theres not much that could rattle in that part of the truck.

It rattles when I hit bumps.

I thought maybe it was an exhaust hanger or a cable banging against the cab but there is nothing under there.

Anyone else had something similiar happen?

Sorry for bringing up a post that was hear before.

Thanks for any pointers.

I have a "clunk" behind the driver's seat that I can't figure out what it is. Is noticable when I brake for a stop or turn. Sounds like something rolling around but there is nothing there to roll around. Not sure if this is what yu are experiencing.

not really....it sounds like a cable rattling against the front of the box near the box/cab joint underneath. It only makes noise when hitting bumps or potholes.

I checked under the truck and all of the exhaust hangers are tight, the exhaust is tight, the spare tire is tight, I couldn't see or work loose any rocks in there, all cables passing through don't have enough sag in them to even reach the cab/box so i'm really puzzled.

I wish I could have found that thread on here because someone else had the exact same noises as mine and there were quite a few replies to it. Someone must have found a cause and fix.

I'll keep on lookin' i guess.
