Well its like a "thump" and/or a stretching kind of noise, from the rear end as I mentioned thanks , take care
Your spare tire may be loose. I start by checking on that.
Yea I have checked that, and it doesnt make that noise when i go over a dip/bump if the truck is straight or perpedicular, only if its in a angle as I mentioned before.
Put the truck on jackstands (via the frame) and try to re-creat the sound with your hands. Or see if there is anything loose that the weight of the truck was making undetectible. Check every nut and bolt under there and look for any new worn spots where any two pieces of metal come together.
