strange LOUD whine??

(1/3) > >>

driftwood:
ok here goes,

a while ago i kept getting a noise every now ant then, it sound exactly like ...wait for it...someone hitting a tambourine!!!. i have had a look for loose itens on the engine etc with no look. recently it has progressed to a loud metalic whine, then it will dissapear and then return again.
it doesn't make the sound with the engine running/reving when stationary, when it is doing its opera spaz whilst driving, there is no effect if i dip the clutch, apply the brakes. as from what i can tell, it is not having any impact on the engine ie, slowing down, struggling etc.

could it still be the clutch, or what other areas should i investigate? unfortunatly the noise travels, so i cant pinpoint it, epecialy when driving. and it sound metalic.

any help appreciated

There's dust/stone covers on the diff pinions and at the t box end of the front prop. Has it come looses and rattling?

Stones stuck behind the stone guard on the wheels?
Bin the guard while you're at it if you intend to do a lot of muddy stuff.
