Possibly. You can jack the car up and try moving the wheel side to side to check for play, but imo you should take it apart and visually inspect it by hand. Another area you might want to check are your bushings in the lower control arm. Mine were so worn out the inner ring was hitting the outter ring when braking and making a clicking noise. Replaced the bushings and no more clicking .
