As the video shows I'm having this noise come from rear end.
Axle bolts are intact,disc's n pads normal.
Quick look at u joint,appears normal but I'll have to have a better look.
Anyone else have similar issue?

Can’t get to your video so not sure what the sound is. Maybe be a stupid question but have you checked tires for a screw?​

Yeah video won't load....
Tires r fine.
Try to download video again.
Gets stuck at 100% then errors.
On F150 fb pages it appears they blame it on u joint.

Does it do it in reverse?

do you have the max tow option?
How many miles on the truck?

 

[bosro]

40k kms
Yes it's the max tow.
No it's not the axle bolts.
Both tires removed, bolts are intact.

Warranty expired a month ago?

I would suggest removing the rear driveshaft and greasing the slip yoke splines. There is a kit available that has grease and a new clamp. I don’t have a part number, but a purse guy should be able to help you out at a dealership. At one point they used a green grease then they used the blue grease. I think the newest is a white Teflon base grease

Could also be a rear u-joint

I'm leaning towards a u joint but 40k kms....Jesus.
I've looked at it,tugged n pried and it appears good.

Check the rear end up and support the axle with the tires off the ground. Rotate one of the tires, forward and backwards, see if you can get it to repeat the sound.

I may actually be something in the differential, but really sounds like a joint or spine. The driveshaft amplify that noise and carries it.
