Have a 24 xlt fx4 when I’m driving 40+ mph there is a tapping feeling on my feet. Feels like its right under my feet. Doesn’t matter what gear I’m in, or rpm. I did a leveling kit a month or so ago, I don’t remember it doing it after the leveling kit but I could have missed it. I looked under the truck, checked hardware for torque. I’m not sure what it is.

Sounds like a bad tire. You don't feel it in your steering wheel at all? correct?

I get one in my Raptor between exactly 15-18mph where I can mostly feel it on the foot rest on left side of the floor. There’s nothing audible that I can tell I was waiting until I rotated the tires to post anything about it lol.

No I can’t feel it in my steering wheel, I was thinking of rotating my tires but the truck only has 2000 miles.

Yeah the tires on the regular rangers are garbage, I just can’t believe it may be tire related with only 2000 miles haha

What brand tires are on your truck?

There's a few issues with those tires, but not the exact problem you are having. You can Google, "problems Wrangler territory tires" and see some of the issues.

I know this may sound crazy but I had a similar issue with my factory new tires. Every now and then I park in a gravel lot. When I get back on the paved road I hear that noise. In my case, since the tires were so new they would hold stone and pebbles inside the tread and they would start to fly off as I start to reach about 15 - 20 mph. That sound was stone hitting the inside of the wheel wells.
