Need Help Now!!! Strange noise after BL

So I just put on a 1.25" JKS BL on top of my RC 2.5" lift that I did last night. Everything was fine after the suspension lift. Ran great, no issues. I put on the body lift along with the transfer-case shifter relocation bracket and adjusted the fan shroud. I also replace the speedometer gear while doing the BL. After the body lift was installed, I took it for a test drive. It was fine until I started to turn while giving it gas. I heard this awful ticking-like sound coming from the front of my jeep. I wondered if it was the fan/fan shroud for some reason, but there aren't any signs of scraping anywhere on the fan or fan shroud. Sounds like it is coming from the very front of the engine compartment. It comes and goes, but is most apparent when I am giving it gas, especially through a turn. Any ideas? I really need to figure this out because I am going hunting in a week and it's a 5 hour drive to get there.

So it turns out it was my shroud assembly. I ended up trashing the whole thing because it broke. Live and learn... Just because it looks like it is going to clear, doesn't mean it IS GOING TO CLEAR. Now I have to figure out what to do to keep my radiator hoses from hitting the fan until I can get a new shroud.
