make sure your rattle clips are in right and make sure you didnt bend the backing plate and have it hitting something. spraysome lube, wd40 or something along those lines into your leafs in the rear, how old are your rear shocks. and lastly do you have a check engine light coming up? sounds like somethign like needing a tune up, when was that done last. or maybe somethign more advanced such as tps, iac, 02 sensor. what are you driving? year, motor, 2x4, 4x4, ??? update your sig so everyone knows what you drive. and wecome to the forum
