Default clicking noise when braking.

94 civic si with h22 swap ls brakes and calipers, skunk2 drop springs on gsr shocks..
the car has been pulling to the left lately.

and when i press the brakes the car makes a hard cliking/popping noise
coming from the brakes or suspension. it also squeaks when i go over hard bumps./

also the pop sometimes happens just from decelerating. its very scray i think the tires gonna fly off or something,.

please help.

So your suspension is all f'd? Sounds like more than just clicking when braking.

Just to make sure, but did you swap out the axles?

Fixed.

^ That's an easy way to check your wheels bearings/axles for damage. If you turn them and they click or have resistance at certain rotations they need to be fixed.

A grinding/clicking noise will be your bearings. If there's funny resistance it could be your axles. Or both

If you don't get one it wouldn't hurt to try.

Do I need to search the Archives for you?
