It sounds like its coming from the front end, but whener I accelerate from stopped, I hear this clicking noise. the click seems to match up with my speed, increasing in clicks as the speed increases. After about 15 20 mph I no longer hear it. Dont know if this is because the engine noise overpowers it or the speed just turns the clicking into a hum or something that I dont notice. Anyway, I tried to "fix" by rotating the tires, and inspecting the brakes and anything that might have looked funny, but didnt see anything that looked funny. ANyway, I hope it's nothing serious and hfully something I can fix on my own. Also, it doesnt seem do it all the time, but unfortunately I havent been able to notice any patterns t would reveal the ideal circumstances that cause it. My truck is a 2002 dodge dakota quad cab with a 4.7 ltr 8 cyl. with AWD (all-wheel-drive) thanks in advance for any advice or help.
 
well, a clicking noise from the front end of a 4x4 truck is normally a bad cv axle and the whining noise would be the wheelbearing/ hub assembly.
