Popping noise coming from rear when my truck flexes?
Every time I make a sharp turn on a sudden incline like when I pull into the end of my driveway and my truck flexes, I hear what seems to be a popping noise coming from the rear. Sometimes two pops. I also have a 6" BDS lift on. Any coincidence? Btw the lift has been on for 10K miles now and yes everything was re-torqued shortly after it was installed.

My truck does the same thing. More often in reverse for me but it does do it in drive at very slow speeds. I sort of think its from the rear block, but I can't pin it down.

I am running 1.5 inch block with 4" add-a-leafs. I only really noticed it are I added the 1.5" rear block. Re-torqued everything, STILL THERE. I even added friction modifier to rear end (and a touch of fluid) to try it out. But they say it takes a few hundred miles before friction mod helps. At least I can rule it out soon. Only have 59,000 so Ford says not time to service rear end (100,000 miles).
