Transmission/driveline noise

Featured Replies

So I've got a 94 loyale with 5sp DR swap. It's bin driving great until a crazy noise coming from what I thought was the driveline. I pulled the D.L to replace U joints. Just to settle my curiosities I left the driveline off and jack the car up on blocks and put it in gear to see if it would still make that noise. It sounds like it's coming from the passenger CV axle which is a new one. I pulled that cv apart to see if that was the problem. It was all good. I makes noise only when it's rolling, RPM's don't effect it it's like the faster the wheels move The more noise there is. Anyone got some advice? I've been screwing around with this for a week now.

It's like clicking or ticking sound. But not the same as a CV clicker teck.

I'm in the process of pulling the wheelbearings right now. But I can spin the wheel freely with no noise.

Okay so I think I tracked out where the noises coming from. It sounds like it's coming from the front transfer case. Any ideas on what it would be?

Like a playing card in spokes type noise? Mine does it too when it's cold on right turns.
