Sounds like slop in the drivetrain. Crawl under and try to rotate the driveshaft by hand. If it moves, your click is the slack being taken up when you apply power.

While you're under there it couldn't hurt to check your u-joints for slop, grease em (if they have nipples), and check the bolts are tight. Another thing that comes to mind is axlewrap, have a look at the rear diff and see if theres anything the pinion could rotate up to and smack.

For us to guess, we need to know a LOT more about the truck: miles, maintenance, mods, damage, repair, options, accessories... And it all needs to be in your signature so we can review it easily with each reply. Click these & read the captions:
