I did take it to the dealership, and of course when they drove it, they didn't hear it. My dealer is good to work with. Never a charge for a diagnosis like this. The noise has gone...mostly...it's much quieter now. I removed my front away and lubed up joints an bushings for it. Hopefully this...

Its noticeable with the radio on. I had a passenger point it out as well. :( The best way I think I can describe the sound is, that comical sound effect sound they add in for movies, when the wood on an old pirate ship creaks? (I know I know, but its accurate) Just more muffled. I'll hop...

I took the skid off myself to see if I could spot anything obvious, everything seemed tight, and the noise persisted after I put it back on. Nope, no sliders or steps yet! My noise doesn't sound like this, its a "squeaking/creaking" less of a single thump like that, I'll check it anyway tho...

I did have the truck on a dusty road, and a good bit of sand this summer, but I'm pretty meticulous about power spraying out the vehicle. I'll have to check this! Keep the ideas comin, my dealership is great and look into anything I've found on this site.

I took front and backs off and checked, I've had that happen before and make a similar noise and they all appeared solid. No loose studs either. :(

Not rhythmic at all. Only happens when suspension initially flexes into the turn, and then again when it relaxes coming out of the turn.

Stopping by to see them today, but everything is stock yes!....for now. Haha

Alright. I know that this is next to impossible without someone riding in the car with me, however I thought I'd give it a go describing things and see if anyone has had something similar, or could help. Whenever I take a hard to medium left turn, Or whenever the body has significant roll...

That looks pretty awesome. Only a 3 hour drive for me!

Could you perhaps show me which blanks you are referring to? I wanted to tap one for my CB and couldn't seem to find it other than plugging/unplugging everything!

I brushed the snow off the side windows, and let the front wiper defroster take care of the rest. She's pretty when she's got snow on her.

Full price was another $250-300, and at some point I'd like to get new bumpers. So I'm going to see how the plasti-weld goes, and save the cash for the steel bumper upgrade. The 4Runner back bumper on a 5th gen is plastic unfortunately :( I don't live in the real Phila, I live in New...

That put in your stomach when you hear the "crunch" is the WORST.

It includes fill and a full bumper repaint and clear. At least it'll be super shiny! Ha! I'm from the Dover/New Phila area, out in the boonies

Was chopping fire wood, and drug a tree across the field as usual, but I leapt before I looked and backed into a branch that wasn't visible. The backup sensors didn't go off, I'm assuming that it was too small of an obstacle to detect. Such a bummer, almost made it a year without a single mark...
