Welcome to the site, Glad to have you here. You need to post a repair question in the correct forum for your truck(ie 7.3l, 6.0l) to get the best results for your question. Many smart people won't look in introductions for giving advise.

I had the same problem with my 02. I replaced ball joints and bearings and still an annoying rattle. I read a forum about a rattle on this site explaining the sway bar bushings being worn out. I put new links and bushings from ford and cured the problem 100%. Now, you can buy replacement bushings from parts house, but I bought the links (have new bushings in them), and the bar bushings that attatches to the axle. New links were $150 and the bar bushings were $30. Well worth the money.
