Brake noise?
Drove the car for about 2 hours today, on the way back I noticed I hear a clunking noise from the right rear tire when I apply the brake firmly. The brakes work fine, just hear a clunk when I apply the brakes. It doesn't do it every time and sometimes it's louder than others. Any ideas?

I think I may have fixed it today. I removed the tire and looked at everything in the wheel well, brakes, suspension, etc. Everything looked OK and all nuts, bolts were tight. I then sprayed lube on the sway bar bushings and all the rubber bushings and pieces that move with the A arms and even the shock mounts. I took it for a 2 hour ride and it didn't do it once.
