This is a "poll" on front-end noises where an actual fix has been discovered. There has been a lot of discussion in various threads concerning rattles, clunks, etc. from the dash forward, but not much in the way of actually finding the source and fixing it. The most common noise is associated with the intermediate steering shaft (ISS) bushing — so lets leave that one out (unless a fix other than the clamp, grease, or RTV has been found). Otherwise, if you have had an annoying rattle, etc. and found a fix (other than ear plugs or selling the truck), post it here. I have had the ISS replaced but still have a rattle (left side dash toward firewall) that can't be found. Soooo, only post if you have found a noise and a fix.

Dealer just did the second ISS replacement for the dreaded clunk. However, after getting the truck back, I accidentally discovered that the hood has been touching the fender at the front edge on the driver's side. I have adjusted the hood stops to give the proper clearance and will soon know if anything has changed in the clunk category.
