Is my axle going out?

So heres a weird one...This is not a constant thing, it only happens once in a while. Pretty much when braking or accelerating from a dead stop i hear and feel a click...Also when doing sharp u-turns as well it clicks quite often. I didnt know if it could be possibly a rotor going bad or the drivers side axle. any help is much appreciated!!!
 


Jack up car...take off wheel...inspect entire axle to see if the boot is shot, which would lead to failure...since there is no axle grease.

A differential can make that particular noise when it starts to kick the bucket. Eventually it will sound like pure grinding (because it is).
