Question engine or transfer case

I have a '94 bronco that had the motor replaced from the dealer right after i bought it. And for a while now, (a whole year year) everytime you go from a stop there is a light thud in the front end. It almost feels like a loose mount, but it only happens when the motor is warm. It doesn't do it now that winter is here, and its cold. Just wondering if anybody knows what this could be. It doesn't effect the performance at all. Any help would be appreciated, as I am new to the site

First off, welcome to FTE and the Big Bronco Forum.

Could be any number of things. If you are certain the sound is originating from the front of the truck its not going to be the transfer case. That's way back under the floor beneath the center console. There are a lot of front end components that it could be. If you can pinpoint the location a little more or even give a look with the hood open and the brake set (wheels chocked etc.) to see if anything moves abnormally when the throttle is openedyou may be abe to get a better idea as to what is causing the noise.
