my baja makes this noise...

when I come to a stop after moving I can hear a clunk comming from the caliper. What is wrong here? The thing that really sucks is that the GF's Corolla makes the same noise so any light that can be shed on the subject would greatly help.

baja has 36k and the corolla is an 07 with 19k both have a lot of meat on the pads yet.

***if Ben says anything wisea$$ed here I will beat the snot out of him***

The clunk is saying something is loose. Could be the slide pins, between the two halfs of the caliper.
The bolts that hold the caliper to the upright.
Or a suspension ball joint or pivot.

You can jack it up, get someone to hold the brake on, and try to rotate the wheel back and forward, see if you can hear or feel the play.
