Clacking Noise Right Before Completing Stop

[tommiman]

I hear a rotating clacking noise when rolling to a stop. Seems to happen a couple seconds right before completely stopping. What could this be? I can hear it coming from the front end.

Only logical to check your brake pads.

Humm..the clacking noise I got was my lower lateral ball joint..might want to have it looked at before it falls off (if this is the case).

I had the car inspected a few weeks ago before I bought it. Balljoints were fine. It's a rotating clattering noise.
