Default getting a weird clicking noise/feel in brake pedal/steering

i had the lower ball joints replaced as well as outer tie rod ends, got an alignment and some new wheels and now i feel this slight clicking noise in the brake pedal when braking and when i turn, its like a click in the steering column. any thoughts? could it be from the LBJ install?

was the noise there before all the new suspension parts/wheels? who did the install? sounds like something may be loose.

Hi guys,
I am having the same problem now, car has 113,000 miles, never had any suspension work done, then one day this clicking sound appears in the left front wheel well. Happens when i brake and/or make right turns. Since then i have replace tie rod end and upper control arm, problem still exist.
Any ideas what the problem could be.
Thanks
Clive.

I have just driven my car on business this last few weeks and put around 3300 miles on it. The car did great the whole time until I pull into my neighborhood after the long journey home. Then the exact same thing lower ds side wheel would tick and click especially when i turned to the right. It has since gone away but I still wonder what it may be.. Any clues?

hmm with a little more research, i ran across this post.. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...t+end+clicking

There is a tsb on it and it makes some sense for my situation, because my pads started to squeal a bit lately....
