So I have a very audible rattle in my front end/gearbox. When starting out in 1st and/or shifting to 2nd if the revs aren't high enough I get a loud rattling noise. It's to the point where I need to rev abnormally high when letting the clutch out in 1st and 2nd gear. The rattle is also just as loud when I'm starting or shutting the jeep off in neutral. If I start it up or shut it off in gear, there's no rattle. Anyone have a similar issue or experience? Any thoughts on what it could be?
