Noise When Accelerating?

When I take off normally(normally=slowly like other people) and when really taking off quick there is sound coming from behind me(bed area). Almost sounds like the clunk but not as loud. Im thinking that maybe its the POS plastic liner I have in there thats just loose? Any ideas?

Funny you say that J15BIG,

Ocassionally I get a noise from the bed like something is rolling around in there,
or something
YET NOTHINGS IN THERE ???

I also get that stupid vibration under the floor boards where you rest your feet, but I've had that for 11,000 miles so I guess whatever it is, it is.

I've heard the Muffler can hit in weird places under acceleration and make funny noises ? Hope you figure it out.

Rob:

Keep that tailgate locked! Might find someone in the back of the truck ... stealing a ride ...

Funny I say that... I know times I have left my back tailgate down. I would just get done dropping something off and have a habbit of leaving it down till a buddy tells me But when I get out to close it, I see all sorts of junk in there. People actually like to dump garbage back there. No lie. Its a pita. It has only happened a few times but still Same with with my Sport Trac. I didn't even have a cover for it. So I would always have sh...it back there!

I have the vibration under my floorboard too when at idle- it's an intermitten problem....both with stock plugs and Denso's---been there all along!

Anyone know why or what it is?

Thanks

I have it too when Im sitting still at a light...every now and then I feel it vibrate and the can itself makes a drone sound.

On a side not, my blower is making extra noise at low rpms now, its not the "whine sound" its more like a pulley sound..has only been doing it fo 2 days though...weird

J15BIG or Rob... did you guys ever figure out what caused your clunk/thump/thud while accelerating?
