Default Clicking sound

I was out messing around with my GoPro today and noticed a metallic clicking on occasion when my axle flexes. This is just on a dirt road with a few ruts. I have a short video that of the suspension and you can clearly hear it. Not sure how to let you guys see it.

Check the torque on the swaybar links as that is usually the cause of the sound. if not then start checking the torque on the trackbar and control arms
