    Answer to all your questions. I had same issue after a couple thousand km on my 19 silverado LD. I re torqued the u bolts at first. That lasted one block lol.
    The thing that worked was cutting bike tire or the tubing into 4in strips, and slipping them in between the top two springs. 4 stacked 4 in peaces of tube in front and behind the lift blocks. You can jack up the truck and put a large flat head in between the springs or prybar. Then slip them close to the blocks.
    I also put some where the clamps are, just slip them in there. I've never had a issue since. 20k later.
    Also, if the rubber is to thin, add more strips stacked. Or another strip of tire. There is other material you can use , but this is what I did. Hope this helps.
    People even thought they had diff issues because of this.

    I had the update done that omar mentioned and it worked. The dealer i bought the truck would not do it though and argued that it was normal but luckily I have 3 dealers near me so i took it to another one and they did the work. It now has 14000 miles on it and no longer is making noise.

    One issue I had was the leafssprings have this plastic piece like a stopper that wore out and caused a clucking noise. A guy I oklahoma makes this rubber piece that's in that area. I snuggled it in that area, and walaa. No more noise

    Start with spraying some WD-40 on the leaf springs. On my GMC it slowed it down. Then I put grease between the leaf springs and it stopped.

      That’s literally what mine sounds like. The sound seams like it’s loudest around where the center of the axle tubes are. When pushing the top rail of the bed side to side right above the middle of the wheel well. Mine is a 2018 Silverado crew cab LT

      crazy thing is 30,100 miles on my 19 serria the rear diff was leaking fluid and they chanegd the seal twice and i also had this clunking noise they said it was normal after the 4th seal blew at 30,100 miles we had to fight with gm and they got the whole rear axle swapped and the clunking sound went away so id check to see if its your rear axle or the leaf springs. they said out rear axle was defective.
