    Ok did all pro sliders bolt on and my nfab front bumper with lights. After doing this a have weird creaking almost like l
    Plastic in the dash or the sliders are a little loose. I have checked skids, sliders bolts, front bumper, pro grill, lights and nothing is loose could this be a new noise from wind with a bumper? I only hear it at low speeds in like a parking lot. I’m almost to the point of doing the Harley mod and turning up the radio someone helppppppp

    Try Felt washers where you mounted the bumper. You should be able to have someone drive the truck at low speed while you walk along side and listen for the noise. Find which bolts you screwed together closest to the noise. Put the felt on those.

    I have had a creaking noise come from the bumper to frame mounting points, but it sounds like you checked that. Are you sure it’s coming from the outside of the truck?

    So that’s my next step was taking off the front bumper driving it seeing if that’s it and then sliders. Yah my dad stood outside of the truck and we went back and forth in and out and heard no noise from the outside

    Try the front bumper, the front frame rails move independently from each other and it sometimes make the noise you are describing. Before someone comes with something smart ass about the rails moving, they do by design.
