It started non-stop on friday. It sounds like my tire rubbing on something but I know it's not. It gets louder and faster when when i accellerate. There's no ticking when I just rev the engine. If I'm accellerating and shift into nuetral the ticking goes away, even at the same speed. If I apply the breaks and give it gas the ticking gets louder, but doesn't speed up unless the vehicle speeds up. I removed the front drive shaft to see if that was it, but it didn't help. I jacked all the tires up and spun them but no ticking. I ran the jeep with the rear tires off the ground and I don't think I heard ticking even when applying the breaks, but maybe. The drivers side shaft moves in and out maybe 1 or 2mm, the passenger side wiggles, but doesn't really move.
It first started a month or so ago, and only occasionally when I would accererate from a stop at a left turn. I just thought my exhaust was rubbing the tire since one of the hangars is missing. Then friday just before I got home I suddenly here this soft, deep rumble. I thought the exhaust had finally cracked sicnce I was missing a hangar, but once I came to the stop and heard the ticking, I knew it was something else.
That about all I got.
Thanks for the help.
