Clicking noise while braking

Just like the subject says, my front brakes make a clicking noise when I brake just a little harder than usual. 2 or 3 clicks before the car stops. Any ideas??

Thanks

It MIGHT be the rubber bushings in the brake caliper that go around the mounting bolt collars. But it also sounds like something else can be loose too, try checking all the joints in the front of the car.

yea, it could be the caliper jumping around and making noise. make sure the caliper slide bolts arent all rusted up or worn and the caliper is tight.
