Rattle/ticking sound above 4000 rpm

Check your O2 sensor. I think that was what was happening to mine. I'd hear something like metal clinking together really fast. I thought it was my exhaust but when we narrowed where the sound was coming from it ended up being a loose sensor that was rattling around at certain rpms.

Since you mentioned that. I was pulling out of Dairy Queen the other night and I bottomed out pretty hard. I never thought twice about it. I'll check that out. Thanks.

your intake tubes are hitting the Refrigerant line on the driver side.
