Stockies Member 68 Member For: 12y 3m 27d Gender: Male Location: Vic Posted 26/07/13 05:07 AM Share Posted 26/07/13 05:07 AM Check the rear shock mount. (Passenger)Mine was loose and would make the noise your all describing. Fixed under warranty last month.All the guys I work with have FG utes, and all have had an issue with the passenger side suspension. We do carry 500kgs of tools and stuff around all day, every day though...

Been on the hoist a few times and I can't find it.I think it's suspension related but all looks tight.It's bloody frustrating.Yay for ford quality.
