    I’m glad to be here
    Hi all .
    my 2015 tundra pro has a very creeking front end . Been that way for many years . Nothings broke yet
    Seems to do it when I go over bumps
    Sounds like maybe plastic rubbing I’ve been to dealership many times of course nothing wrong with truck
    I’ve looked under front I see nothing wrong
    Truck will be paid off soon
    And I’m going crazy trying to figure this out
    Any one have similar noises or know what my problems is
    Thank you

    Is it coming from the shocks? Uppers? All factory?

    It’s the skid plate.

    Yup.. try removing the skid plate and check for rubbing marks against the frame. Put some rubber insulation tape on the rub marks before re-installing.

    Agree, its likely the aluminum TRD Pro skid plate that rubs against the crossmember. Makes a terrible noise...there are threads on it...easiest thing to do is get some rubber material from HomeDepot/Lowes and sandwich in between the frame and the skid plate where the bolts go through.

    Problem solved.

    Sweet thanks all
    I will start with skid plate first .
    if not then brake lines
    If not
    Upper shock mount
    Skid plate. Do my own oil changes and clean everything good behind the skid plate all looks good
    But will take skid plate out and drive around see what happens
    I still swear it sounds like plastic creeking not metal . Lately I will say doing it more and all my friends saying the turd gonna break down . So I’m concentrating now on figuring this out
    Oh I have not gone out and used 4x4 so no abuse there . I do every 3 months put in high and drive 10 miles .
