From Reverse to Drive braking pop.

OK. I just totally rebuilt the front end of my Supercrew. new ball joints and tierod ends. Put my 22's on and now when I go from Reverse, Brake then to drive and soon as I apply the brakes again I hear a pop.. like the brake is settling or something.. Any thoughts ideas??

You didn't take the brakes off or clips holding the caliper did you? Did you check for anything that may have come loose or need to be re torqed? So if you put it from rev to drive can you drive with out the pop or right after you go in drive?

I know mine has bracket clips on the out side of the calipers. Make sure you put those back on and all the way or the caliper will. Be loose some and might be why when you brake you get it. If you can get some one to drive next to your or walk when you do it to see if they can pin point it better.

Make sure the Anchor bracket is tight.
