Yeah those may be suspect for the clicking then. Before you go out and purchase new u-joints, try to move the ones you have now by hand and see if they are sloppy, stiff, or if they feel a little notchy. If you have new wheel bearings and those are good then other then the u-joints I personally wouldnt know off hand what could be your current issue.

Good luck and hope you find the problem soon. I myself know how annoying small unusual noises can be.
