annoying rattling from back of jk
Whenever i go over a bump or hit a pothole there is a very loud and obnoxious rattle that comes from the back of my jk. I am pretty sure it is coming from the inside. I know it’s not the factory jack and my spare tire is tight.

The overhead speaker bar is a big plastic piece that has two screws on each side that attach it to the roll bar. Same place that you may install hand grab handles. If those screws are loose, the plastic structure can vibrate against the roll bar.

Just a guess, but do you have a receiver hitch ? Sometimes the stinger can rattle purty good, something most people get used to but a good bump and you can notice it

On mine it was the top tailgate hinge. You can check it by shaking the spare tire up and down. I replaced the hinges with the Mor/Ryde ones I got from Extreme Terrain.
