I'm not sure what mine can be. I dont really know what to look for. Don't know much about the front end on these trucks. Just that they arent good. Haha

i had a clicking and clunking coming from mine any time i'd go in reverse - hit bumps, etc. - my issue was control arm bushings.

Pull the wheels/tires, and calipers. Have a look. See if anything seems 'out of place'.....

when you start applying the brakes, or when you COME to a stop. ALso, do you hear it when you are parked, let off the brake then go forward or reverse.

That would probably be axle u joints.

add me to the clicking as well. i've tried my darndest to capture the sound with my camera/phone to no avail! mine usually happens between 25-40mph about 8 outta 10 times. doesn't matter if im on the brakes, gas or just cruising.

2nd that, i pick up rocks all the time.

I replaced all my u-joints upfront and did the bearings, but that didn't fix my clicking in 4wheel... definitely coming from the front. didn't do that when I bought it. Any ideas?
