Unhappy Concerning sounds

I am hearing a loud clicking sound coming from either the trans or t-case. I only hear this sound when accelerating in 2H or 4H at around 10-20 mph. i have checked the fluids and checked the mounts to make sure they aren't loose. Any help is apreciated. thanks guys!

Have you checked the universals on the front drive line and the center hanger bearing on the rear driveshaft. What fluid is in your transfer case (ATF), how is the level.

the clicking starts out slow and then it speeds up and stops around 20 mph. I dont see how the Universal joints would make several clicks while accelerating, maybe the T case then?

my dads truck done something very simialar when the u joints were going out in it, it had all kinds of cliking noise, pulled out the drive shaft and sure enough there was one really loose you joint pulled the u joint out and what was left of the u joint fell out in my hand as rust. my truck just latley had the front u joint go out, when i had it in 4wd it sounded like the front drive shaft was gioing to fall out, it was worse than my dads, all the needle beerings were gone in every side of that u joint,
