Question: Clicking sound from front left wheel

Question

The front left wheel is making a clicking sound, and it gets louder with speed. I was thinking cv joint but when I jacked up the car and put it in gear without the wheel on the axle there is no clicking sounds. Is it still the CV or bearing? Or is it something else?

Thanks, Bob

    sounds like the bearing, but if it clicks when your turning it could also be the axles.
