Darrell---Squirting oil "all over" to get rid of the click now makes it more difficult to find the culprit, altho it will probably soon return. At that time you could try greasing the U-joint. If the click is still there, try either tightening all the (4) bolts that hold the t/a bracket to the frame rail. If these were not loose, next both either tighten or loosen the two large bolts at the t/a brackets. Go thru the motion that could make the click appear. (We're trying to locate the source, correcting comes later). 
If the sound is still present, remove the axle spline and grease this shaft. 
If that doesn't do it, you may have to pull the trailing arm bushings to inspect for excess wear or ovaling. exchange and/or more thorough greasing.

Good hunting!

Dick
