I have an 02 extended cab 30,000 mi.,no abuse
For 10,000 I have had a subtle rattle that seems to emanate from the front bottom of my dash no matter if I am driving or the passenger.
No noise when stopped no matter what you do, even jacked it up and worked underneath trying to get something to move
Soon as you drive no matter how smooth the road here it comes
Haven't taken the dash apart
Any ideas would be appreciated as it seems to be getting a little louder
thanks

Have you replaced your shocks lately? Mine were loose after powering on them with the air gun and all was quiet.

Thanks. I'll check the shocks. It is really an aggavating noise.

I know exactly what the noise is: You have a Dodge Ram CTD. We all have it and if you can figure out what that noise is and can fix it forever you will be one rich truck owner!

Or two (2) little 2 inch Alien men that are stuck trying to get out !!!

Forgive me, I had to say that !!! Trying to make myself laugh today....

As the others said, I would first check the bottom front shock bolts. They need to be really torque'd.

Mine were loose for about 2 mos. and it was driving me krazy. I torque'd them by hand as best as possible while on the ground but plan on putting it on a lift and using a HD impact gun.

Let us know if this works.

check the track bar bolts, too
