Noise coming from front end??

I have a noise coming from the front end of my truck usually just on small jaring bumps that hammer the suspension (washboard) it almost sounds like a rattle I thought that the front shocks were loose because that was what it sounded like but I checked them and that is not the problem. I also feel a bit of vibration or something coming from the floor under by brake pedal Im not to sure if they are related? any help would be nice.

is it like a "clank clank clank" "jingle" "clank" type sound?

i have the same thing as of late- how many miles do you have on these shocks? i know mine are very due and i'm thinking maybe that has something to do with my problem.

thats the sound, I just put these monroe sensatrac shocks on like maybe 3000 miles ago. they should be fine i dont think its the shocks. but I would like to have an Idea as to what it could be before I take it anywhere.

Check the heat shields on your exhuast. They could be loose and clanging around.
