Popping or Clicking Noise When Braking or Articulating

[OverlandGS]

Sorry if I didn't post this in the correct thread. I am having this popping or clicking noise from what sounds to be the front end of the Gladiator

I have a 3.5In Lift installed, with 35x12.50s and Geometry correction brackets. Brand new Drag link, Tie Rods, Adjustable Track bar and Teraflex Balljoints

I have went underneath it countless times and have been checking torque on everything I can think of. I just redid the Control arms on the Passenger side last night and to no success. Checked U-Joints and they're fine, Balljoints are torqued to spec. Brakes are good and were just changed about 3 months ago.

Here is a Video of the noise, I can make it do it when hitting the brakes a little harder but only once one way then have to reverse to get it to do it again, also it will do it randomly on small bumps and going slower.

Thanks for any input!

You can see the near side lower control arm moving fore and aft at the chassis end when you take off and stop.

UPDATE!

It turned out to be the Drivers side Geometry Correction bracket.

The shop that installed this lift ruined the threads on two control arm bolts, also they did not tighten the control arms while on its own weight, Both upper and lower were in a bind.

All good now thanks for the inputs
