Finally got my alignment after installing the leveling/lift kit so have been doing some driving. Pretty impressed with how little, if any, impact it had on the ride. I did notice more noise coming from the drive train though. It was actually starting to get concerning, thinking I might have to replace one of the CV axle shafts. After driving with this noise for a while I thought I'd try shifting from 2WD to A4WD. Heard a load sucking sound, a clunk, and then the noise went away. I've never heard this noise before when shifting between drive modes. I'd feel a small clunk when shifting to 4L but don't recall hearing or feeling anything when shifting into/from any other mode. So now I'm wondering what I may have done while getting things swapped out/installed. Shifted back and forth between 2WD and A4WD several times and it kept making the same sequence of noises. Will need to get under there and see if I can see anything obvious. I know the hubs are vacuum actuated and that sucking sound is probably the vacuum but I've NEVER heard that before. Anyone have any thoughts?
