Get a stethoscope, like the doctor's use. Except get a mechanics stethoscope. This will help you out a lot when looking for things like this.

I had an 87 ranger 4x4 and it was making this ticking sound, but I couldn't tell exactly where it was coming from. I got a scope and stuck the pointer on the right vavle cover. Damn, that was loud. Turned out it was a stuck lifter.

Hope this helps.
