Jingling from rear end...wtf??

wassup guys im trying to figure out wtf keeps jingling when i hit bumps. it sounds like a bell ringing when i go over even the smallest of bumps. i took my spare and spare winch thingy out and its still doing it. not comming from the shocks, and sounds like its comming from the drivers side drum. any ideas on what it could be? it drives me nuts and is kinda embarassing lol

mine used to do this when i bought it, take the drums off and some of the hardware will probably fall out

you can also check the center pin for your leafs, i had a jingling and it turns out when my AAL went in, the center bolt wasnt tight enough so i could hear the bolt and washer jingling around, its a long shot but its a possibility
