Well, it depends WHERE it is rattling. Is it at the tips? Or is it underneath the truck? You may have to have it welded, or it could be a simple loose nut or bracket.

Exhaust..Are you sure???

I have this problem, not the exhaust at all, It's the Cat Converter the ceramic material inside the Cat broke up, and rattles..same thing though, every red light.

Mine buzzed like a chain saw. I took it back and they did something that stopped it for a while but I think when I get the chance I'm gonna crawl under it and find it myself. It buzzed at about 1400 rpm and sounded like a thin shield or something like that.
