When it happened to me it was the rear axle having worn down where it rides on the bearings. The solution is offset bearings. they are much cheaper than axles and work very well--and for a long time, too!

I also had the same "clicking" sound and it came from my torque arm. The bolts that connect it to the rear end came lose. So i would check on that first.
