Hello everyone, pretty frustrated at this point. Everytime I drive over decent sized pot holes or bumps there is a banging noise coming from the passenger side, it sounds as if it is coming from the suspension. I cannot, for the life of me figure out what is making the noise.
I have replaced, sway bars, all four shocks, rotors, brake pads, both motor mounts and the one transmission mount, ball joints, pitman arm. Idler arm, tie rods, diff fluid has been changed regular, as well as the transfer case fluid. Had a mechanic check suspension and he said it was all tight.
At this point I'm stuck.
Please, if anyone knows where I'm going wrong or what direction to take please tell me.

 

Probably the same noise in my '98. Haven't taken the time yet due to other vehicles, but I suspect it's the rear speaker broken loose from it mount and the magnet is banging around.

 

I had this same issue and for the life of me I could not find it. I knew the entire front end was good and tight.

It ended up being the passenger side hood bumper on the core support not making contact with the hood when closed. A couple adjustments later and silence. Just

 

Take a thick piece of cardboard, open hood , put it in place where hinge is to create pressure when closed. if the sound is gone you found it

 

My mistake, I thought the OP was referring to the rear part of his truck.

 

Can you elaborate on what you are talking about, because I have actually heard of that happening to others and now I'm starting to think that's my issue

 

rubber bumper under front of hood near radiator. also hinge washer wear out and get loose. Thats what I was talking about above
