When starting out from a stopped position, I hear a bump in the rear of the vehicle. I dont hear this noise when coming to a stop. I have made sure everything is out of the vehicle to avoid the chance things maybe rolling around, and I still hear the noise. I dotn hear the noise going over bumps, so nothing like the shock. I have also checked to make sure the tools for changing the tire are secured, and that the spare tire is tight against the body. All ideas, thanks for the help.
