Popping sound when accelerating after lift install

[CazzyCazzy]

I have an automatic 98 and I just got a 2 inch (more like 3) lift from bds installed. I do have driveline vibes but there’s also this popping sound that happens when I accelerate. Would this be connected to the driveline vibes?

Could be. Probably just something not torqued down correctly.

Could be driveline vibration related, but more than likely it's something that wasn't torqued down properly.

What that might be, only you'll be able to know for sure. I'd go through it thoroughly with a torque wrench.
