Damn. What were you doing when that happened?

Just making a right turn on red and gave it a little bit of throttle and boom. I just bought it a few months back and haven't driven it much, it really didn't give me a warning. Since it's AWD, I figured a little rubbing type noise while parking was normal, maybe it was that axle making noise. Either way, it's the NVG149 t-case so I had it towed on a flatbed to my work to fix tomorrow..

That’s impressive! Too many neutral drops?:rolleyes:

I wish it was that, but I'm too old for that. Honestly, last night it was raining and it was the first time I could play. I tried to get it to slide or fish tail but the AWD is impressive. This morning I was going to pick up lunch, made a right on red and gave it about half throttle and boom. Maybe the previous owner did some beating on it, but I have driven it less than 1000 miles since I bought it.

Previous owner probably changed out the oem for china made axles.

I bought some new 900 lumen 4114 DRL’s off Amazon. Never tried this brand but the packaging sure is fancy.

Put in four full cans of r134 and now have a 60 degree AC versus a 90 degree AC.
Much nicer now, albeit towards the end of summer, but fortunately Texas won't get cool for another month or two.

Sucks. Any idea what it is yet?
No idea. My son was actually with me. He said sounded like a possible valve tap. Possible clogged hole in a pushrod. I asked him what he thought about Sea Foam. He said give it a shot, might unclog the hole. Idk tho.

Are you sure an exhaust bolt didn’t just pop or header gasket blew a hole? It sounds very similar to lifter tick.
