Default 06 track clicking from front end while braking?


I changed all my brakes and rotors about 3 weeks ago, and everything was great. A few days ago while at a drive through, I noticed when I rolled back and then went forward a little and hit the brakes, I would hear a click/thud from the front left/maybe even right. Imagine you put a rotor on the studs, and then pushed it to straighten it up, that slight metal on metal thud.

I took off the wheels and inspected the brakes/rotors and everything looks good. No bolts missing, nothing seems out of the ordinary, therefore I don't think its the brakes. What gives??

I attached a video, sorry about portrait mode -___- i recorded in landscape.

check your dust shield behind the rotor, that is what it kinda sounds like to me

is it only when you hit your brakes or all the time moving?

Someone else said it might be my control arm bushings starting to walk.
