POST PICTURES OF YOUR BODY LIFTS (2014+)

Sbaer2012 · December 21, 2016

YES, I know the clunk you are talking about I have it too and noticed it after my body lift was installed. I have been up under the rear of the truck several times trying to find it and CANNOT find out where that loud clunk is coming from. It is a loud and noticeable clunk when going over a bump forward or reverse. please let me know if you find out anything.

MAN I WENT THROUGH THE WHOLE DAMN TRUCK TODAY...I HAD MY BUDDY BOUNCE ON BUMPER COULDNT REPLICATE SOUND. SPARE TIRE WAS PRETTY DAMN TIGHT SO DONT THINK THAT WAS IT.

I finally gave in and schedule an appointment to have dealership look at it this coming Friday. I don't have access to a lift so maybe they can pin point it.

I don't hear the noise over EVERY bump but when going over a bump just the right way I definitely hear it. sounds like it is from the passenger side rear wheel area or rear bed...I will definitely post as soon as I get an update. UGHHH ...

@1badtie

do you hear the noise at cruising speeds and literally every bump you hit whether going fast or slow? Also where are you generally hearing it from? same area?

All I can tell is that its from the rear area. I can hear it on almost every bump. like I said i have been under my truck several times, even with sockets making sure everything is tight with no luck. Let me know what they find out it drives me crazy bc I'm OCD about my truck. At first I thought it was a loose spare tire or a weld broke on my exhaust but nope wasn't any of that.

yeah I have to like specifically listen for it when going slowly over a bump but now that weather has kinda warmed up here in New York I haven't heard it. Still taking it in tomorrow for them to double check it...but even when I could clearly hear the noise it wasn't all the time.

ill let you know tomorrow night or Saturday morning if they find anything.

Yes, and it does require some modification to one of the body mounts to get them to retract and even then they don't retract all the way like before the body lift but they look fine in the up position.

Do u know what exactly need to b done to it ? I really wanted to get some but not If there not going to work properly or will look dumb on the truck

New shoes 33x12.50r18 ridge grapplers. Ride great, super quiet, they are some heavy pigs though.

Great looking truck...

Interested to hear if you have taken the truck off road at all with the new shoes and how they have performed, I have the trail grapplers on my 04 but I have thought about getting the Ridge since they claim the are quieter for my new 17.
