    Good evening all! I have tried searching for a solution but ending up with no luck. I have a 2014 CrewMax, with 7" BDS suspension lift and 3" PA body lift. When starting to accelerate, I hear a rubbing/rattle sound accompanied with somewhat of a vibration. The sound is coming from the front driver side almost as if it's in the wheel well. This is only at slow speeds up to 25 mph. I'll try to get a video of the sound of the source tomorrow. I also have mammoth guards installed. For now I'm assuming the sound is coming from the body lift. Has anyone had any problems or experienced any issue(s) like this before? Please don't thrash and bash me too hard please, lol! Thank you all in advance!

    I've got a similar noise that I'm trying to track down. Its not the needle bearing as I've replaced that w the ECGS clamshell bushing.

    The noise went away w a tire rotation, and the dealer said, about a year ago, that it was tire noise related. It also went away when I was on a long road trip w lots of highway miles, but then returned in town.

    I've not been able to dedicate a ton of time finding the source though. I'm running 34s and an OME HD lift.
