Front tire ticking noise?

Front tire ticking noise?
Hey guys. I'm pretty much new when it comes to knowing how to fix jeeps and know what's wrong with them. So I hope you guys can help me.
I've had a ticking noise coming from my left front tire for a few days now. I'm not sure if its a u-joint. Or just a brake indicator telling me my brakes are bad? But I did notice a difference from my left and right wheel.
Can anyone explain if this is the cause or if this is normal? Thank you
Left front. You can see the circular thing in the middle facing me. Sorry i don't know what it's called. And on the right it's facing down. Is this the issue ?

Check my picture and look at the u-joint I was told mine are broken obviously. But I'm not sure if that's the cause of my ticking?

I didn't even think about breaks, mine really need a change, could be a break indicator also
