Bought this '98 5.9 Limited last year for my wife. In Ouray last summer there was a rattle in the front end when off-road except when the brakes were applied.
I replaced pads. Still rattled. I replaced mounting pins. No change. I replaced both calipers and rotors (had some pulsating) and pins again, but it still rattles, unless the brakes are applied. Even a slight touch on the pedal, not enough to slow at all, quiets it down.
It used to only rattle over bumps, but it's getting so it sets up a vibration at slower speeds on pavement now that rumbles until higher speeds are reached, or the brake is applied.
What the heck?
