Anyone able to identify these clicking sounds?

Taken from out my window. When starting and stop, there are a variety of sounds that sound like big relays, but it could be something else. It doesn't sound like hub/CV related noise, but not sure.

In this video you can hear 3 or 4 clicks during a gentle start. This seems to have started after not driving the truck for 5 days. I don't remember hearing constant clicking before this.

I know, i know, not another clicking noise thread....but with a recording maybe these are identifiable.

Thanks. I have seen that thread. I guess what makes me think it's not CV/axle/nut related is that you can hear multiple clicks while going in the same direction. If it were a single click that sounded like drivetrain loading, I'd be more inclined to think it is cv/axle/nut related. Not sure.

Most of them clicks multiple times, mine does too and there's a video in that thread where it sounds pretty much identical to yours.

Hmmm I think you're right. How stupid that Ford can't build a CV/hub interface that doesn't click after only a hundred and twenty years of making cars. Now I get to have the anti-ting TSB applied.

My truck was built in the first '23 batch in Oct and the TSB came out in November. Apparently, they couldn't figure out how to build the first '23s correctly.

Thanks for pointing this out.
