Offhand, I would say wheel bearing...

that's what it sounds like, "ccchhhhhhhh" grinding, nasty noise.
You were probably so focused on the cv joint "click, click" that you didn't hear it before.
Take it on the highway, get it up to about 55, take it out of gear (to unload the drive axle and eliminate the cv joint option) and move the wheel back and forth slightly. If it sounds fine straight but grinds as you turn a little, it's probably the bearing. Also, take the wheel off and try to wiggle the rotor. If it moves at all, the bearing is bad.
It's easy to replace, but a little pricey. You replace the entire hub assembly.
