Default Clicking noise

I have a 07 and when I left a parking lot today and started to accelerate a loud clicking noise started in the front end. When the truck is at idle and just easing around it does not make the noise. When i really accelerate is when it makes the noise. I thought the truck could have thrown a rock into something but i am not sure. It is not a grinding noise just a clicking. Any ideas?

Ok guys I narrowed down the clicking to the front driveshaft. When I
engage it into 4hi the clicking noise stops. What do y'all think it could be? Not a very experienced auto person.

You are going to have to do some trouble shooting. If the clicking goes away in 4hi I would guess its your hubs. Might be a problem with the 4X4 actuator for the hubs, common problem but usually more of a grinding sound than a clicking sound though. It wouldnt be the front drive shaft because its not turning untill you select 4HI.
