Strage tick?

Okay so I noticed on a long drive yesterday that my truck has developed a strange tick noise from the engine. It sounds like it's in the heads but I have no ideas. Some info would be great also I have 217000 on it.

possible lifter tick. kinda hard to tell you for shure without hearing it first hand

I should add this truck hasn't lived an easy life with me. It almost sounds like the valves need adjusted...

no adjusting valves on these. hydraulic lifters

i would pull the valve covers off and use a steel rod between each rocker and your ear to listen to see if its a lifter

I figured I'd be down to that
