I've developed a strange sound since lifting my 80. Current set up is OME Heavies, CC bushings, have not dropped the sway bars yet.
This is intermitten but from a stop, when I get on the gas failry good, I get a "tin" sound coming from the passenger side front. As I let off the gas, the sound will go away, back on it and it comes back sometimes. Turning to the left or right sometimes changes the sound a bit, but doesnt make it go away. It sounds like a meat slicer if anyone can relate to that?? Its a "light" or "tin" sound and sounds like something rotating. SOOOO, obviously it sounds like when the engine torques my drivline is rubbing on something right? I have crawled around under there inspecting and I cant find ANY signs of rubbing or wear? What else could it be? As I mentioned, it seems to come from the passenger side front, but I'm not positive. Lastly, just last night I passed by the passenger wheel well after a quick trip and smelled a burnt oil smell Any ideas on what I could check next?
PS. I dont feel any driveline vibration as mentioned in some recent posts.
