While driving forward motion open county roads 06 h3 99k miles
A sound emanates from H3 that happens 30mph and at 45-50mph.
It is rotational and up down rough bump which seem to cause it.
The noise sounds like loud crickets or birds chirping angrily. Hahaha.
I'm aware or the front drive shaft CV at front of trans case but not sure.
Have any of you had a similar sound and if so what was it?

sounds like the same problem I have.... my mechanic friend says to spray silicone lubricant in where the CV goes to the unit bearing... otherwise, if that doesn't fix it, replace the unit bearing

Actually it turns out the front passenger side top shock nut backed out to its last bit of threads. Ugh!
Drive side loosened to half it's threads. Go figure.
