I have a feeling that my clutch is going out, or my whole tranny is going out. I noticed a clicking noise on my way to work this morning, and it accelerates, as I accelerate the jeep. When I push in the clutch, it gets quiet, but I can still barely hear it, If I put a load on the clutch, without letting it out all the way it gets real loud. Any idea what it could be?

hard to say because i cant hear it, i wouldnt rule out u joints.... check em good... also a bearing goin in the tranny can make some interesting noises...

Does the clicking get louder with acceleration or faster (less time between clicks)?

Hey Scott, Just get rid of the piece of re-peating sh!t poo-fawkin-jo tranny and swap in the 999 automatic already <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> just kiddin fawk-face, i know your still waiting for the auto to come in the mail. Stop by the Casa tonight I'll check it out.

Sounds like a throw out baring to me.

The clicking just gets faster in accelerating.. not louder.

I'd vote for U-joint, partly because that's what mine sound/act like when they give up the ghost, and partly because it's about the easiest thing to check.

Im thinking a U joint too, havent checked them yet, but if I remember right, I heard a pop, right before the noise started, so Im guessing front u joint, since I can still drive fine, and my front shaft is now spinning all the time due to a lockright in the front diff.. I hope thats all it is!

reminds me of a joke we used to play on people....get a big zip tie and put it on someones drive shaft. it'll slap stuff as the shaft rotates and makes all kinds of noise. it'll scare the poop out of some people. not that i think that is what it is, it just reminds me of it. it might give some of you some ideas for your boss too <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">

Well, I figured it out today.. bad news, the tranny is going out.. oh well, my auto tranny and t case showed up today, so I guess Im just going to have to accelerate getting that in. I also toasted a front 260 u joint today, and figured out that my battery is junk.. also realized my rear main seal is leaking... Jeez.. makes me think my jeeps a peice <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0"> Oh well.. Just more crap to fix..
