Noise when I brake?

[turnerTRD]

I have an 08 TRD sport. When I mash the brakes it sounds like pop or locking noise from the front end. Doesn't do it all the time and only does it time I mash the brakes, doesn't do it through the whole braking time. I have no clue. Wanted to get yalls opinion before I go pay someone

Are you talking about the clicking and vibration at the pedal when the ABS automatically kicks in?


Now I'm no mechanic, but I'll take a beer and look at your truck anyway...

Are you lifted mine does that plus also clicks whenever front end compresses

 

[turnerTRD]

Not lifted, and it doesnt do it at the pedal. It comes from under the front end

Sounds like ABS kicking in. If your standing on the brakes a lot of your sensors are working to prevent you from sliding. I'm not 100% sure but I'd look in your manual to see. Trac control, ABS etc.

Check to see if the pads are shifting to much. You might just need to replace the hardware kit.
Check your control arm bushings too.

I think its my abs because I can hear it on both sides some times, what can I do about it tho?

Don't stand on the brakes. I'd check your pads just to be safe.

Check to make sure your rotors are not shot.

I don't stand on the brakes I just barely mash them in to slow down and it does it

I'd check your pads and ABS sensors.

Update! Changed the brake pads because they started squalling when hard braking. Well after changing the pads the noise went away when braking.
