Brakes clunking.
Over the past couple of weeks I have noticed my brakes clunking while depressing the brake pedal. Since then I have replaced all four sides to no avail. It feels like the clunk is right under the driver's seat and the only thing down there is the Hydraulic Control Unit for the ABS system. Are the pistons contained within the HCU big enough or have enough pressure behind them to clunk when I quickly depress the pedal? I thought it might be the hardware on my lift kit that might be loose in some spots but I took and impact wrench to them and I know they are tight. It also doesn't matter how fast I am going. If I hit that pedal quickly it clunks. What about the power booster or the master cylinder? Could they be the culprates? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated as I will be getting some Xmas money in the coming weeks to spend on my beloved truck. Thanks in advance!

Mine did the same thing mid-Summer but it was the tie rod assy. I replaced it all and mine has not made the clunking noise since.
I am sure you will get other suggestions but hope this helps.
