Been trying to figure out where is noise is coming from, had no luck, anyone else had this noise before?

Only the rear axle is making noises whenever traveling up or down any bump or potholes. I have Deaver +3, rpg bump stop kit and fox 3.0 factory race shocks.

Maybe bushings? Or? Any suggestions will be helpful! Thanks!

Almost sounds like a bad Heim Joint with that rattle.

Everything still tight / torqued properly?

Any elongated holes you can see from something not being tight enough?

Any broken E-Brake Brackets or things that look like something is obviously missing?

Loose Brake Dust Shield?

Dust shield is rattling, but I used a wire to hold it against the axel, still making noises, I’ll keep on digging. I’ll try retorque. Thanks!

I had the same problem. My e brake cable came loose. Check the ebrake cable.

Please let us know if you find it. Sometimes mine sounds like you’re hitting twigs or a spring-ing tingling sound.

Hmm, the shock bolts are tight, the leaf springs are torqued to spec, any possibility the rear bypass shocks valves are clicking? Do fox 3.0s click that loud?
