Clunking sound

metal rattling sound front end

Yesterday after I Revered my truck in my drive way I noticed that when I make a slightly fast stop, I heard a clunking sound. It only happens at very low speeds, less than 5 mph. Went under the truck and the cv joints have play in it and makes the noise I'm hearing inside the cab. Rattles when the weight shifts back and forth. Are these CV joints a problem on our trucks? Mines a 13 with 86k miles and haven't had any big problems with it since then. Hopefully the videos I posted with it I can get muiltiple inputs. Also, what's the cost of getting these done at the station and is it covered under warranty if I just installed 3.0 kings?

It's not accepting my videos for some reason

It's likely the slip yoke. That's normal for the cv's they have a bit of play

im sure that my cv axels shouldn't be making a rattling noise either but is there a way I can check if its the slip yoke?

The rear diff smacks the yoke as it slips fore and aft. Certain trucks do it because the diff splines that fit into the slip yoke need lube. The DIY fix is to install a grease zerk so you can lube it at every oil change. There's a how to thread somewhere here,

This clunking is more an annoyance than a flaw, per se. I.e. Truck is designed that way.

@SVTLOPEZ I have the same sound and it has been diagnosed multiple times as slip yoke needing grease. Their right when they say its just more of an annoyance..

i pull and grease on oil change, doesnt take look. lol put your parking brake on first.
