    Anyone notice their engine making a ticking sound similar to a valve tap while going slow up a hill while 4wheeling?

    I have 33's and while going slow up an incline the engine feels underpowered (of course it is, stock gearing...) and ticks a bit.

    I don't think it's anything to be concerned about but just seeing if anyone else has noticed that.

    Oh... In 4 low it doesn't do that. Only when I'm asking the engine for more go and it doesn't wanna give it.
