Default Help! Clicking noise coming from rear axle

Guys, I need your help once again! I have a 97 Ram 2500 Pick up. I just noticed a clicking noise coming from the rear axle whenever I turn a corner. I first thought it was my front u-joints, but the noise is coming from the rear axle. Does anyone know what is causing this and how to fix it?

if it only happens when you turn a corner and you're sure it is coming from the rearend, then you might want to pull the diff cover and take a look at your spider and side gears. i have run into this problem with a Ford 8.8, the spiders had chewed themselves to bits.
