    After wheeling i developed a clunk/rattle coming from the front passenger side.

    everything is torqued down.. still there.. Got a video going through a parking lot at slow speeds..

    Possibly brakes? I can thing of anything else?

    Yeah what I’m thinking.. it’s metallic and also happens on flat surface, can’t pick it up on video to faint..

    it’s a rotating click then a clunk when I hit a bump.

    I’m in telluride, co and there is one auto shop.. 1000+ miles to home

    try to go through the same patch of road but just lightly apply the brakes, if it goes away it's the brake pads, otherwise keep on looking
