I have an off road h pipe and flowmaster mufflers and have never had a problem with any metalic sounds so i don't think that it is normal

Check your heat shields. The ones that look kinda like aluminum foil tacked between the exaust and the tunnel. Those things make a terrible mettalic sound when tapped or vibrating. Maybe they are bent or resonance is causing them to vibrate a bit.

Well... I'm going to say check your mufflers where they attach to the over-axel pipe. I'm thinking it's the over-axel pipe connection at the mufflers.

When I put my h-pype on I moved my over-axel some how and my mufflers wouldn't stay clamped to the over-axel pipe. Couldn't really tell by looking at it, but I tightened and adjusted my mufflers so many times until I realized the over-axel pipe didn't look right. So I loosened everything from the h-pype to over-axel pipe connection and the mufflers. Got everything to fit easy, without having to push and pull. Then tightened up everywhere. Everything will move quite a bit.
