I checked out that piece and it was not rusted or anything like that. I think perhaps it got a tad loose? No clue. Seems really weird they don't have a doughnut gasket in between those to piece of pipe. I undid the two bolts... took about two days worth of spraying kroil and an impact on the lower bolt, top bolt wasn't too bad. Checked all the way around and didn't see any holes. Ended up putting some exhaust sealant on the flanged part then put the two pieces back together and bolted it down tight. I don't hear a ticking anymore.. I didn't drive in with the truck today so when I go to the gym after work I will take it and see what happens. Just for giggles I started the truck up without that piece connected and man was it loud. Sounded ridiculous...lol -Nigel
