I need to know what this problem is ASAP...I will post pics, of the area the sound is coming from, later today.

We really need more information to help you. Does the sound occur only over bumps, vary with speed, only when turning, when braking? Also when you say left wheel is that in the truck or looking at the truck? Driver's or passenger's side?

Does it happen to sound like this:

Actually Jason, no it doesn't...I can hear it while driving, when I go over a bump or turning...wasn't home all day and wasn't with the X so making a vid tomorrow to show you guys

check the upper balljoints; From the factory they came with no zerk fittings. Mine sqeaked so I used a needle grease gun and pumped them up. But it was too late by then, now I'm replacing them only 5,000 miles down the road....

Well after taking a look finally...I found that both the upper and lower balljoints were basically shot!

While I was out of town I had a friend take it to a shop for me to get them swapped.
