Post subject:  Tick tick tick NP231
I am getting a ticking sound when driving and I am almost certain it is coming from y T case...I got it to go away a few times by shifting into 4LO driving it a few feet then taking it back out...it won't go away now....any ideas? Bearing? Loose chain? linkage adjustment? Rebuild?

A botched SYE install?

simple fix just a loose chain had that in my 231 $200 dollars later and a hour in the shop good as new and I have pounded the snot out of it and works great :JEEPIN:

So if it is the SYE install, what could have been done wrong? Chain...I hope it is an easy fix....

I would check the linkage first. 231s take a lot of abuse!! I guess the chain could get loose if you drove it in 4 on the pavement alot....

Make sure it's not leaking either. Maybe get under there and see what is making the noise. Does the ebrake work? I have a bused ebrake cable in one of my XJs and so the ebrake assembly thingy hangs low and the DS can hit it and it makes annoying noise. I don't even need an ebrake! oh well.

I also had a ticking sound in a 231 a long long time ago, adjusted the linkage, and it went away, then I changed the motor mounts and tranny mount, and re-adjusted the linkage because it was the motor/tranny being out of place that caused the original misalignment of the linkage.
