    I have recently been hearing and feeling a rattling sound when turning sharp at low speeds. Like something is loose. Anybody have similar experience or clue what it could be. No shake at high speed when going down highway.

    Are you lifted or do you have different offset wheels and possibly larger tires? It could just be the tire rubbing on the fender liner or anything else in the wheel well.

    Not lifted, stock suspension, wheels and tires. Doesn't really feel like a rub more of a rattle. I do have after market front and rear bumper.

    Any0ne have any clue as to what this could be. I thought it might be steering column but there's no play in it or rattle or shake at higher speeds. Only seems to happen when I drive under 20 and am turning sharp. Backing out of places and turning on city streets.

    Perhaps this is the cause.

    Get underneath and check your catalytic converter heat shields. On my 09 Crewmax 2 started to rattle. One, then the other right after. Depending on which one and where it was loose, I might only be able to hear it when turning the wheel a certain way. More pronounced when I just started the truck and everything vibrated more, than less so as it warmed up and they got drowned out by engine and road noise. That's probably the easiest, fastest thing to rule out.
