Clicking is a sign of bad outer joint. Shaking under acceleration is a sign of bad inner joint. How bad is the freeway shaking? If it's just a tiny bit, you probably just need your wheels balanced. If it's shaking about 1" in each direction, you're got a bad axle. As far as clicking, the louder it is, the worse the axle is. At a certain point, it'll just give out completely and you'll need a tow truck to get it anywhere
