2020 RUBICON Gladiator w/ Rock Hard 4X4 skids

[larsman03]

How goes it & thanks for the add! I bought a complete skid pan assy as impulse buy this past Smokey Mt. Invasion. I bought bumper,rock sliders,etc as well. I had the skid pan installed as didn't feel like laying on ground trying to install. Got it done 3 weeks ago, started hearing a rattling noise almost right away going over rough pavement roads, RR tracks, etc. Hit a man hole cover dip & nothing. Which is very odd. I took everything out of back under the seats, straps in bed of truck, shackles on front bumper. I pounded on all skid pans & dose not seem loose & all bolts tight. noise seems to be coming from rear axle area. Anyone have skid pans & same kinda noise. Had 2-1/2 lift installed different company & couldn't find anything loose. Thought maybe exhaust hitting something, but all tight. this gonna kill me until I find the rattling noise. thanks for any & all info suggestions.

I wonder if they loosened up something attaching skid pans .Not the skids but what they are covering. Heat shields ,I m like you that would disturb me also. Even tho I am already have a few screws loose.
