    Hello all,

    I have a question regarding a thumping sound that I notice when going over uneven or rough roads. It's not super loud but definitely noticeable when my radio is at a moderate level. I have the Daystar lift installed and I am not sure if this has anything to do with it but I am wondering if there are any common issues to look for that could contribute to this sound. I read a thread that indicates it could be related to the exhaust hangers having too much play in them but I have not had a chance to see if this is the case. It annoys me so I thought I'd check to see if anyone else has any insight.

    Thanks.

    First place I would look is that aftermarket suspension. Make a note if you can tell any direction that it seems to be coming from and start with that corner.

    I don't have an aftermarket suspension on mine but I watched some installation videos and there's enough involved that it could easily be that.

    Most of my thumps seem to be because of the lift... check your front sway bars I had mine come loose and I need to recheck them now as I'm starting to hear a rattle from up there with the new tires...

    Thanks for the input guys. I'll check know out those things. We're supposedly getting more snow this weekend so it might be a bit to check.
