04 STX 4x4 Problem

I have the same truck with extended cab, and have never noticed any clicking sound while in 4x4. Mine has about 22000 miles and I have no complaints. I'd be taking it back to the dealer as well.

04 STX 4x4 Problem

Come to think of it I did have a clicking sound coming from the front area, back when I first got the truck. This happened without being in 4x4, mainly in park or drive. Took it to the dealer, they replaced the transmission. No problems since.
