FX4 making noise while braking and cornering

I just got in my truck this morning to go to work and when i made the turn at the end of my road i noticed a sound that was like when you have a hole in the tire and you hear the air come out when the hole is not between the tire and road. SO at 5 am in the dark on a deserted road I pull over to make sure that i do not have a hole in the tire and nothing. I noticed the sound several times on the way in to work and then returning this evening. Usually after coming to a complete stop then making a turn. It sounds like air. Usually four short bursts like being fired out of a blow gun. I got home and looked behind the tire for anything amiss and nothing. I will not be able to check the pads and see if its the wear indicator maybe chirping the pads in the turn with the wheel cocked over till this weeked. However is it possible its coming from the vaccum solenoids for my 4x4? It is an )5 Fx4 supercrew it has 10000 miles on it.

Alright its coming from the right front. Checked the four wheel drive and it came on normally and drove fine. No sounds. Pads are slightly low and ready to change but i do not see anything making contact with the rotor that would make a sound
