Rubbing noise after replacing radiator- Help please!
Hello all, I am new to the forum. Always looked over it for advice and tips before doing anything to my jeep, so I figured I should probably join based on the amount of time I spend here.
Anyway, last night I replaced the radiator on my manual 1996 XJ 4.0 L6. Also let me throw in there that it is the post office vehicle model...
So.
I replaced the radiator and now every time I accelerate it sounds like something is rubbing. A repeating clicking noise. I am guessing maybe it is a fan rubbing against the new radiator or shroud, but do not know.
Looking for opinions and advice before I take everything off again!

Check the tabs at the bottom of the shroud. I had that same noise when I replaced the radiator on my moms Cherokee and those tabs were not in the slots
