My 93 DD is rather rattle free.
It's lifted about 3 inches with 31's and everything else is bone stock. The only noise it makes is the exhaust occasionally rattles on the cross member.
Now, my trail rig... That poor thing... It creaks and groans and squeeks and squawks and... It's not a quite ride.
When I bought the Silverado truck I've been DDing I didn't know what to think... When you roll the windows up and turn the radio down while driving down the road you can't tell that it's running. It's so nice and quite. Shhhhh!

My fenders rattle a little from being trimmed, but otherwise nothing makes any noise on mine. Don't care either way, I cant hear anything over the radio or tires, especially if the doors are off.

Besides the hard rub on sharp turns in the right front from off set axle, the only rattle I get is if the loose hanger tabs the exhaust at stops

i just drove mine the other day for the first time in about a week and it seemed to squeak more than i remember. i like it though. my jeep smells like oil and squeaks like crazy. i actually feel like i am drving a machine.
