Default 2007 Silverado Ticking

Just bought a 2007 Chevy Silverado that I hear a ticking sound when I drive straight. I have pushed on all of the tires and the right rear tire has a clanging noise when you push it back and forth. This sound seems to be coming form the pumpkin. Has anyone had slack or an issue like this in the past? What are the possibilities?

If abs sensor is not seated properly, it clipping the stator and makes clicking noise.

Do you have any aftermarket equipment on the vehicle?

"johntaps" offers a good suggestion. Leaf springs are another possibility. Just a suggestion, not a diagnosis. I recommend consulting with a certified technician for additional assistance.

Please keep us posted.

No aftermarkets equipment. It is almost becoming a squeaking sound and no longer a ticking one. I will be taking it to the dealer tomorrow.

Well just got back from the dealer and it turns out something was rubbing on the rotors. I did have a questions about the axle when you push it back and forth there is a lot of play and I was told that this is normal. All is well, thank goodness!
