Ticking noise; doesnt seem to be from engine

[DesertBen44]

So today in the dark i attempted to locate the cause of a ticking noise, which seems to be coming from underneath the truck behind the cab under the first foot or so of the bed.

The noise does increase with engine RPM, but it really seems like its coming from the area of the transfer case, almost sounds like some kind of vacuum pump trying to pump.

This sound familiar to anyone? It could be coming from the bottom of the engine but really doesnt seem like it.

Haha my apartments 77 degrees from earlier today, got all the windows open and fans blowing trying to keep cool. This is my first winter in Tucson, love it.

I'm so used to working graveyards at the airport, this is the time of day I have the most energy/desire to work on the rig, even if it is dark

Tucson is a great place to live, its' still like Phoenix was in the 1960's.
The older neighborhoods have all different houses ...
Downtown still has great live music & cheap food.

I sincerely envy you ....


You lucky SOB ....
