Re: help! truck making a ticking sound.

Welcome to the board!

If it's ticking when parked, it won't be u-joints. I'll guess either a collapsed hydraulic lifter, or an exhaust leak at or near the manifold. Could be transmission, I don't know. Another possibility is cracked flex plate. They'll sometimes crack between the bolt holes.
