I've got the same rattle (Icons) and it's driving me nuts. Didn't notice it until the weather got warmer and I started driving with the windows down, so not sure how long it's been happening. Curious to see if you find a solution.

I think it’s the rear bypass shocks are clicking and cluncking, I checked my brake cables, springs, exhaust, and torques, only thing haven’t check is the bushings, and put oem shocks back and test.

I sent a video to raptor shock exchange guys and they didn’t know what it was and I called fox and asked if the shocks should make noise and they said no. ‍♂️

Conventional bypass tube shocks will go "clicky clack"....Our internal bypass shocks will make no noise...
BTW ICON states that some of their external bypass tube shocks use a quieter check valve to decrease the "clicking"

Here is a better video.

I thought the fox 3.0 factory race is external bypass.

Guys I confirmed it, it’s the external bypass shock noises, I took one hr and replaced to the factory shocks, noises are completely gone. I guess icon is even louder in your case?
