Default Exhaust Rattle

Ok so for a few months now I've had a vibration somewhere along my exhaust that I can't pinpoint. Has anyone with an '05 Dakota had this problem? If so where the hell does the rattle start and how can I get it to go away? Thanks

DG

My guess.... Heat shield by muffler, or heat shield on manifold. My heat shield on my manifold rusted out near the blots that hold it on.

*sigh* boys...

so how about after market parts? anyone know a good online dealer where I can get a cheaper but still good quality parts? I want to get a front end leveling kit and a new leaf pack... whoever had the truck before I bought put some serious weight in the bed and the ends of my leafs are bent flat thus my truck is below stock height... not cool. any ideas? and guys, actual advice please? thanks
