Clicking sound when accelerating

Does anyone else hear a clicking or ticking sound when accelerating, almost like relays firing off from the back wheels when accelerating? Its real noticeable when aclerating slowly like in parking lots, etc.

Only time I get clicking back there is when there are stones in the tires.

Are you sure nothing is stuck in your tires like a nail?

No, this is a definite metalic sound coming from the wheels. I keep thiking maybe its the differential. What ever it is, it doesn't seem to be hurting anything.

Make sure there isn't a nail in one of your tires man. You are describing exactly what it sounded like the last time I ran over a dry-wall nail. [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

check your lug nuts, i was reading a post on this forum that someone was hearing a clicking sound like you described and thought it was their tranny, and it end up being loose lug nuts. hope this helps.
