Clicking from front end making right turns??

Has anyones truck done this?? Mine is clicking which sounds almost like a CV joint when making hard right turns. I haven't called the dealer yet, but was just wondering if anyone may have a clue on this.
Thanks!!

i will bet it is the u joints in the front axle shafts. grab them and move them up and down or front to back at the joint. mine where clicking, and i could move them a bit like that. they shouldn't move at all.

Thanks, I have an appointment Saturday to have it looked at at the dealer. I will hopefully find out the issue then.

The dealerships diagnosis was a bad wheel bearing on the front drivers side. They ordered it today (Saturday) and said it should be in by Tuesday. They said everything is covered under warranty without any hassles. I will post more information when the repair is completed to satisfaction.

The dealer replaced the entire hub assembly on the drivers side today. This took care of the clicking problem. I would not have expected a hub problem with only 15,000 miles.
