a seatbelt bolt? I thought I had my chain in the t-case let loose as it sounded like a jackhammer under the jeep after I shifted in 4 wheel drive for maybe 30 seconds and back out.
Drove it home ~20 miles with this jackhammer noise under the jeep and ~ 1 mile from the house there was a pop and no noise.
Well unhooking the rear driveshaft tonight getting ready to drop the t-case and notice some gnarly wear marks on the yoke, look over and see ripped metal by the passenger side seatbelt bolt on the tunnel.
Some how the driveshaft was able to get close enough to the bolt to catch it and ground away untill it sheared the bolt off..
Thinking motor mounts and possible tranny mount is bad as the fan it also barley touching my new winch mount that was ~1/8" away when I built it.
