TICKING From Front End After Tranny Install - Relative To Wheel Speed
 

I blew my tranny this week, took me a good 6 hours to get it installed by myself which sucked, went out for a test drive yesterday and there is an audible ticking coming from what I believe to be my drivers side wheel
Its definetely gets faster and slower depending on speed, but it sounds like it would be the equivalent to one click per rotation of the tire

The car was not making this noise when I took the trans out

Things I installed/changed
-drivers side axle boot clamp was loose and was slightly leaking grease, I cut it, shoved a little wheel bearing grease in there and clamped it with a high quality stainless hose clamp TIGHT
-drivers side axle didnt have a c-clip on the tranny side, I added one

Thats all that was changed

Need some help

Thanks guys

you may think this is dumb, but check your wheel for rocks/nails or anything in your tread. Sometimes thats all it is

even dumber, check to see you didn't push the brake dust shield into the rotor.

I end up doing it about every 3rd tranny swap......

I think I may just be stupid

Like I said, I used a hose clamp to clamp the axle boot (closest one to wheel)

And there was about 3/4" of extra clamp out the end and the clamp mechanism is about 3/8" tall

Is there clearance that tight in there that its just rubbing? Might have to bust out the ziptie
