The tick is probably just a lifter. Our old lumberyard truck was a '98 F-150 that hit 233,000 miles before the company finally got rid of it. The tranny was rebuilt at 165,000 but the motor was never touched. It always had a pretty good lifter click.

The thing still ran decent when they got rid of it, but it was eating a quart of oil every 300 miles.
