    I have always found getting a friend outside the car helps to diagnos problem sounds. As long as you dont have to drive faster than they can walk/jog it works pretty good, also a little more involved idea is put all the tires up off the ground and see if you still hear it, may not since there is no longer any resistance. However with both methods be very careful

    Yeah, I just hit 27k and I notice a slight rattle underneath and also something banging around on the left side in the rear when I go over bumps. I am certain it is coming from under the truck as I have checked and secured my spare and any other loose items in the back. I think it must be my exhault or the heat sheilds. I hope to creep under there soon and get a fix on what is causing the noise. Its very annoying.
