A little backstory so our long long driveway is all ice top layer of snow melted and refroze the road is as slick as a ice cube so I drove to home depot and got a bunch of sand 14 60lb bags which is 840 pounds after loading it in the back of the xlt the back proly sagged about 2 1/2 inches as I'm pulling out of the parking lot I heard this horrible super loud clicking noise coming from the from end I didn't even make it down the street the sound was so freaking loud I had to pull over and call my buddy to bail me out with his 96 bronco how embarrassing I'm guessing its a cv joint going out but it doesn't click when there's no cargo :splat:
 






When the back goes down the front goes up. That CV might get to a point it makes noise with the weight in the back.
