sounds like it is coming from the back. I saw some others on here saying on other forums that it could be a bad cv joint or a bad barring. just trying to find out what it could be.

no, I haven't ran over anything, it was doing this when I got it.

the same thing happened to me with my explorer 250, only in the front end. the bolts under the diff loosened up, the diff poped up and didn't go in right, i got it home (clicking all the way). turns out i ground up my barrings and needed a new half shaft, $450 total. But that what it sounds like it is. take it back to the dealer, its warrenty work.

All 700s and 600s have some drivetrain noise like the famous clunk when you first take off or switch from forward to reverse, they also make a clicking sound when braking hard. I think it may have something to do with the wheel brakes and EBS working at the same time. If yours is only doing it while turning, it could be a bad cv joint.

I went outside to look at my 700's rear and got to feeling around and found something. What does it mean if you can wiggle the left rear drive shaft and not the right.
