Default Weird noise on gas pedal

After installing my RC 3 inch lift, I've been getting an odd noise at about 30 mph and up when my foot JUST touches and JUST leaves the gas pedal. It's like a grinding noise / feeling coming from right below me. If I put my foot in the right place, the noise will stay. It seems like it happens when the torque converter engages / disengages. Any thoughts?

I think we need SYEs... and I'm only +2 inches.

In the meantime, I'm going to do a drop until i make enough money to get a permanent solution. I would've gone higher if i knew I'd be doing this much!!

I hear ya.

Definitely switch to a SYE when you get the money, also you can drive on it but you will get the vibrations. I believe when you pass 6+ inches it is NECESSARY to get one.

But at the heights we are it at it isn't necessary.. but no one said we wouldn't get the vibrations.

Yeah. It's the type of noise that is worrying me. It just sounds like it's doing some sort of damage.
