Clink,,,ing sound

Gi'day Last weekend I was out on some logging roads in Quebec. Actually I was trying to find the forest access road between Ladysmith and Lac Cayamat. (Anyone know that road?) It's just a gravel logging road nothing serious to even warrant putting it in 4x4.



Anyway when going up a fairly steep hill I kept hearing something like a metal clinking sound when the tires briefly spun on loose gravel. I'm hoping it's just rocks and the MTR tires. But not sure. It's not like rocks thrown on the sheetmetal but like a metal clink.....clink.... ing sound. It's a 05TJ Rubicon with 5000Km's on it. I've had Jeeps before and never heard anything like this before. But none had tires like the MTR's. It does sound fine (Gears)otherwise. Anyone know anything about this? Thanks in advance



Well those MTR's can throw rocks pretty good. Did it sound like the noises were in the wheel wells? KH

I would want to get under there and look. Sorry I dont have any big ideas. If its making that much noise then a problem should be obvious. KH
