Default Front left clicking

I got a 2002 F-150 with a 6" lift and 35's, the front left towrds the axle is clicking bad, when driving, but mostly on left turns it clicks real bad. I did notice that there is a lot of grease all over my shock and everywhere underneath the truck, it seems like it coming from the axle boot. any ideas?

Ya im pretty sure there is a rip in the boot, that why all thw grease all over the place. But why would I need a whole new shaft not just the joint or new boot.
