The transferbox is pretty much there, Are the mounts all in good condition?

Cracked T/box mount. I would have presumed that this now lets the t/box rotate more on its mounts when your setting off, when its under the most torque.

I'm not sure what the knocking is - it could be your t/box gear lever knocking against the body maybe?

Worth upgrading to heavy duty mounts from ORA or KAP, or replace with weak originals from Cam.

Just check t/box mtg and intemediate prop joints between g/box and t/box have known the prop to cause this on other 4x4s but is usually mtgs.

Ok, well replaced the transfer box mount drivers side and still doing it, I've noticed that when this sound occurs the 4x4 gear knob is moving (a lot) and sidewards to the point if i pull away fast it nearly touches the seat under the torque i guess. Any ideas??
