i think it is......

Well with medusa's help we figured out it was comming from clutch area. Thinking it something like a broken spring, or clutch finger etc. Where should i go for a clutch/pressureplate, and also how much does a sm420+LC xfer case weight?

Ok, so now that i posted about my car, now time to post about my friends car. He pulled me to my school parking lot via a tow strap, it was attached to his rear tow hook. After we got her into the parking lot he drove me home. Now his car has a weird bump noise, that isnt engine related. It...
I just was driving home from school, and there is this horrible noise. The hood of the car is slightly open, cause the PO put blocks under the hood hinges to aid in cooling before he put the new bigger rad. in. It started to rain, and all of a sudden there was this horrible noise. It sounds...
