Hey guys, I have a 1995 Cherokee 4.0 HP. When I bought it it had about 200k miles and completely stock. I bought it from a guy who is selling it from his deceased aunt, so from what I can tell, it hasn’t been abused but maintenance was probably on the slim side. I ended up doing all the preventative stuff like oil changes, coolant flushes and stuff like that and generally fixing parts of the car that had issues. I recently put a RC 6.5 in long arm kit and 33s. After I got it back I’ve been noticing some sounds. I have ticking at about the middle of my Jeep right under the driver side door. I replaced the u-joint and the half moon brackets on the drive shaft and that tighten up a lot but I’m still getting the noise. It only happens while in gear and under load when I accelerate. And it’s pretty loud. Also, when I turn right while accelerating moderately, I get a thumping and bouncing, almost like I’m in 4WD, but way worse. I torqued all bolts on my steering linkage and it still continues. Also, when I accelerate from a stop going straight, I also get a similar feeling. Bumping, thumping, and almost like everything is loose. The ticking is the most of my consern. I think the ticking might be in the transfer case. I’m not sure. I feel like the rattling, might be motor and tranny mounts so I’ll replace those. Any similar experiences?

no, I kinda just did it. I have a SYE in the mail on its way actually.

yeah so, Right before the SYE showed up on my doorstep, the noise went away. So I feel its going to turn into a bigger problem but the SYE is installed. Now, I did have an alignment done and no new track bar which is currently in my cart along with a poly bushing kit. I had a shop do my lift kit, and they said they adjusted the pinion angle, but I will double check that. I’m not quite knowledgeable on that, so I’ll have to resort to YouTube for that one. 🤷🏻*♀️

Everything is fixed. 👌🏻👍
