Agree with retorquing the U-bolts. They were just over finger tight on our 343RL after deliver from the dealer. Even better, replace those skimpy 1/2" u-bolts wit 9/16" and then torque to 80-90 lb ft. Additionall, the OEM nylon spring hanger bolt bushings on ours were totally worn to the the steel in about 4K miles and popped plus made a pinging noise when we alked around inside.
