****ing tapping noise.

Right at the rear of the bed on the Chalet about a foot in from the driver side taillight. I been messing around with it all day and can't figure it out. Originally thought it might be the little captive nuts/holders for the top. Removed all of those. Checked and removed couple loose wires, which is what it sounds like is prob loose. Just a little metal something tapping on the sheet metal. Had somebody shake the truck while I sit under it with a flashlight. Can hear it, can't see it.

Never heard it with the camper on, now it's driving me batty.

I thought I was gonna be reading about the motor being blown up when I opened this.

Hopefully not for a while - engines running pretty good. With the camper off I can spin both rear wheels on pavement now. Never used to be able to do that and the first time I hit in the shop the other day, Detroit locked and I almost launched out a dock door. Taking the camper off added about 50hp......

Think the tappin is coming from the last body mount, going to try and tighten up a little tomorrow and see where that gets me.

By a pro? I can not figure it out on my own without paying somebody $90/hr to not figure it out either.
