need some advice and sugestions
Hello. i have posted on here before with great results. i want to say thank you for all the help. but unfortunately i am back again asking for help. i recently installed a 3in rough country lift on to my 2000 jeep cherokee 4x4. all was well for a few days, then i started hearing a clicking noise, like metal on metal, coming from what sounds like the drive shaft. i, so far have changed the u joints, and done a t-case drop. still have the noise. my trans mount is bad, and should be getting the new one in in a few days. only problem is that i doubt that is the problem. and other suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Try to get a video of the noise happening if you can. It will make it a lot easier to troubleshoot. Otherwise your gonna have a million different suggestions to look into.

I am unable to hear it when I take a video. It sounds like it is coming from the center of the vehicle right by the drive shaft. I have not changed the control arm or links, but I have put new bushings on to them.

"Usually" with a 3" lift an SYE isn't required and I see you did a T/C Drop kit, that should have you covered on that part. Change out the mounts and see if that takes care of the problem.
