Clacking sound after lifters replacemed

Asking for a friend (yes for real). Replaced the lifters due to ticking and now there’s a clacking sound. No noticeable vibrations. Any ideas? Doesn’t sound like lower end.

 

Did you get all the rocker arms snapped back in properly? That would be my first check

 

I asked that right away, he says they are all properly in place and fit fine.

 

sorry for hacking your thread but tommudd's question is actually where im at with my liberty one of my rocker arms came off. I took off the valve cover today I don't know if I'm replacing lifters or rockers or both???

 

He replaced them due to ticking. There was no other noise. I’m unsure of miles but can check.
