3.0l v6 noises, help needed
Recently i noticed a strange ticking or clicking like sound coming from around the engine and wheel wells. I noticed it the other day while i was idling and thought it was just a leaf or something in the fan, but once i went outside i head it louder. i never head a rodknck or anything and first thought of that but thought otherwise. I decided to drive it down to a park near my house to see if i could hear anytning on the way. i headed a small ticking noise again. once i got down to the park i drove around and found a noise that went away a while ago, but recently came back. it sounds like it is coming from the left driver and possible rear side, but mostly driver side wheel area. its a squeaking and clunking type noise. it tends to happen over bumps, turn either way, or any movement. im not really sure what is wrong, i will end up taking it down to the auto shop in town but any advice would help me save some money. thank you

i have a 1998 auto with manual locking 4 wheel drive hubs. the quieter noise sounds like it is most likely related to engine rpm. but the other is both i think. to add to my description. i as driving in 4 wheel drive and i turned my week to the left and the truck would not move. that had never happened to me before. i tried to give it gas and it did not sound good
