When I am driving I can hear a clicking coming from the front driver side wheel. I am wondering if it is the front shaft that is bad and how do I know for sure. Is it possible to be the wheel bearing. I can feel vibration in the stearring as well I have brand new tires and they were just rotated and check for balance to see if that was the vibration but all tires were good.

It sounds to me like a cv axle. What I would do is jack it up from both ends and have a buddy listen next to it while you drive, youll have to put it in 4 wheel for it to spin. Check and see if your wheel moves while sitting on the ground, try and pull and push it with your hands. If it moves it could be a bad bearing.

-hope this helps
