Default Undercarriage Clicking

I've started to notice an intermittent clicking noise from under my truck. It is most noticeable when cold but I'm fairly certain it happens when the engine is warm too. There is no specific frequency of the clicking so I don't believe it is engine/exhaust related. It seems to happen every 20-40 seconds. Here is a clip of it happening once. I'm trying to get a video of it happening multiple times. Seems to be loudest under the truck. Any ideas? 2005 F150 5.4L V8 with 114k miles

Mine does that too. No clue as to what it is.

I’ve heard random clicks from down under after doing transmission services until the ATF gets pumped back to where it needs to go. Converter chatter? Pump? Solenoids? Not really sure but noise went away after fluid was filled to the proper level. How’s your trans fluid?

Trans fluid is fine. May be a little high? I've never serviced it and it is a remanufactured trans I'm told.
