Clucking sound

Post by MonsterLegend »

Hi everyone
Quick question: 4x2 no clucking, 4x4 low and high range when traveling straight no clucking. Turning in 4x4 engaged clucking.
What can cause this when turning, not traveling straight?

You are trying this on a gravel road, not a tarred road? A tarred road would definitely cause clucking when you turn the front wheels. On a gravel road, there should not be a problem.
