Hmm, never thought of that. I mean using the spare tire carrier as a skid plate. Genius!

OK,
I thought they all had a skid plate there. I guess that is a add on for later.
So my spare on the hook or loose bolt stands!

Syncros have front mounted spares, or mine does and so do all the ones I've looked at, except where it's been removed, like mine. So I guess I was lying about mine having one, but it used to.

What? You can’t say until you test?

Be brave face the list commentary!
Or we can start to guess for you.
Let’s see…
To balance a left corner lean you suspended a bowling ball from the under right side of the van then forgot. It has been swinging into the van making the sound.
You changed out your front spare and didn’t tighten the bolt so it has been bouncing on the hook,
Oh, forget that one you have a Syncro.
When camping your shoes were wet so you set up a bungee cord under the van and hung them there to dry.
They have been slapping the van as you rocket over bumps.
Sort of a self delivered kick.
Can’t wait to hear the real solution!
It better be good!
