  • Clicking noise?

    recently my jeep started making a clicking noise that gets faster as my speed increased, kinda like a card against bike spokes. Andy said it might be a u-joint but ive never had one go bad before so i wouldnt kno what it sounds like. Im around 4" of lift with no SYE and a tcase drop. driveshaft ujoint?

        well.

        is it in tune with your tire revolutions? or your driveshaft revolutions? aka 3.5 times per tire spin in your case

        this will give you your answer, or get you twice as close to it.

            the unibody is like the grand canyon of vehicles. noise from somewhere goes everywhere.

              agreed, when my track bar pops it sounds like someone in the passenger seat dislocated their shoulder, check your driveshafts, maybe you have something captured like a piece of tree/undergrowth

                  you could get under your jeep and start checking things?

                  start with driveshaft u-joints then work to the axles from there
