Update on observation from clicking brakes.
I still haven't had a chance to dig in to the brakes again, but I did make an observation yesterday.
When driving straight, if I hold the steering wheel slightly off center (to the left) the clicking nearly disappears. Now I'm not sure if it is the brakes?
I might have time this weekend to look again.

maybe a long shot, but when they balanced your tired they ones that go on the inside of the wheel...
correct? one time i blew out a tire and had it replaced, they put a weight on the backside outer lip and it was barley hitting the shock. just a thought.

No, I've looked over both front tires, nothing there.
It's coming from both fronts. I'm nearly certain its the brakes, but this new observance has me confused.
It seems to go away during brake application as well.

I'll look, but I had the wheels on and balanced before I did the brakes, no noise until a few weeks
after I did the brakes. It's also coming from both sides as far as I can tell.
