I have this clicking sound coming from the front while my car is moving
the faster my car moves the faster the click.

Tranny and CV are rebuilts.

Sounds like a cv problem to me.
Dont buy rebuilds.

there should be oil leakage near the cv area... check the inside/under area near the hub.

Does it get lounder the faster you move, or the more you accelerate?

check if there are some stones stuck inside your tire treads........

Not all broken cv's leak oil. My old cv's didnt leak, but did make the clinking noise, when the mechanic pulled them off they fell to bits onto the ground.
I put in two custom made cv's and they cost me $350 each but well worth it. :)

can hear it around 40km/h to 80km/h
faster or lower then that I can't hear it at all.

CV seems ok, they are change overs rebuilts,
tranmission seems ok.

oh yeah the steering rubber boot is broken, I can see the ball joint inside :shock:
