Default Clicking from bell housing when accelerating

I've picked up a clicking or ticking noise from the bell housing area of my 98 xj. It is only when accelerating and started off only when acceleration hard and is now pretty much any time you pull out or get in the gas at all... Ideas? I'm stumped

Automatic? It's never a bad idea to pull the little inspection plate on the front/bottom of your bell-housing by the back of the pan. That gives access to the torque converter to torque plate bolts. If you search "loose torque converter bolts" you will see they have a habit of loosening up and causing, normally a knock. Just a thought! Good luck.


There is at least one good deal on that there in the writeup section.
