Loud clicking and Shacking
1st off I have a Dodge Ram 1500 2005 4x2 V8 4.7L with 104K Miles, Tires are around 1yr old 8k miles on them...
Well this is what happens when I 1st drive my truck it has no issues no shaking or loud clicking noise. After about 10-20mins of driving I can be speeding up from 1-15mph and the rear end will shake and make loud clicking noises (like metal against metal). Also does when I reverse or Drive around 45mph or 60mph and 70mph.....
I have replaced all my rotors and my breaks. All my tires have been rotated and balanced. I am up for all suggestions thanks

If you get under the truck, grab ahold of the driveshaft and try to turn it back and fourth. If it moves more than a tiny amount then one of them is bad. You can usually tell because one end will click. Or both if they're both shot. Does this happen all the time or only when straight, turning, ect?
I had one go out on my GMC and it clacked when I took off, stopped, everything. Eventually the whole truck started shaking so I broke down and got a new ujoint :P

they wear over time, the factory units are non-serviceable so you can't grease them, they adventually get grime and shyt in them and fail. No big deal it's fairly common to have to replace a worn u-joint. don't cheap out on them either get a good brand like precision and they usually come with a grease nipple so you can service them from time to time.
