front end problems HELP

I have a clicking noise or a catching noise in my fornt driver side hub. I've had the tire off and everything looks good. I try and wiggle the tire up and down side to side and its all tight. The brakes, caliber and rotor are new and everything there is complete. It clicks almost constant when im driving exept when i apply the brakes or turn a sharp corner. The u joints even look good. but is pretty old. If anyone has a clue I could use it. I want to fix it myself but I dont want to just start replacing parts. I may just have to take it in and have it worked on.

Jack it up and spin the wheel, nothing beats a close-up action shot sometimes.
