hey

in my 93 dakota RC longbed, whenever i hit like 1700 rpms or so in 1st gear, before i shift into 2nd, and as im pushing the clutch in, it sounds there is an empty tin can rattling under the bed... this pretty much happens anytime im coasting as low speeds with the clutch in... what could be a reason for this?
