After front brake job, Front left wheel goes "clunk" when I brake . . .
 
A few weeks ago, I did a front brake job on my 97 Ranger, 2wd, V6 4.0, ext cab, 5spd. I put on new Wagner Thermoquiet ceramic pads, new rotors, and new bearings.

The truck seems to drive just fine now, except when I gently brake at lower speeds, I hear a clunk coming from the front left wheel. Occasionally it will pull to the left when I brake.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong when I did these brakes. What should I look for here?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Did you lube the caliper slidepins? Are the attaching bolts for the caliper and the lug nuts tight? Do you feel any play (side to side/ up down) with the wheel raised ?
