Hello, I have a 2003 ford f150 4x4 and I have a sound coming from underneath my truck. It kinda sounds like a whomping, rumbling or thumping or roaring sound(only way I know how to describe it). It quits when I come to a complete stop but when I get up to about 10-15 mph it starts-whomp-whomp-whomp. It not a constant sound sounds like its gets louder every few whomps. Do you have any ideas. Thanks

I love this site :-)
