clicking sound from left front...any ideas?

it sounds like two pieces of metal that are very close together and the only thing i can think of would be the bearing or possibly my cv joint even though the boot is fine. could it be a bad strut?

If it clicks during a turn, then its the CV joint.

If it does it all the time and more like a grinding sound, then probably a wheel bearing.
