Annoying clicking from rear shocks

As title states have a very annoying clicking sound and seeing if anyone has had this before. Can re create with jumping on back bumper. So far changed both rear shocks to new, c pillar and b pillar mounts and tightened all bolts. Can stop the noise if I pull on shock but can’t find how to stop it as comes right back.

Things to check:

1) bolt torque
2) are the bolts bent (lower often bends)
3) are the holes on the mounts ovaled. If the bolts come loose and the truck is driven, the bolt holes on the frame and axle can oval.
4) are they using the correct diameter bolt.

If hole is oval how do I rectify?

You would have to weld a spacer on

Let me find the PN for the bolts. I went to aftermarket shouldered bolts

Pre trip prep… surprises

This summer has been a bit of a let down trip wise. Things happen. Parts break. But it’s how you get back on it that counts. So we have a big trip with a bunch of other vehicles tomorrow that has been on the books for a while. So I needed to get the truck up and running. Sad wallet. But I want...
