When coming to a stop the brakes squeak and somewhere in the front a clunk noise sounds then cuts out after released? Any idea what the problem is?

Get you front end check out. It's not the brakes themselves so something isn't right and I'd feel a little nervous driving with that going on.

Could be a brake pad droppped out of position in the caliper .

I would certainly get your front end look at before it ends up costing more in the long run.

in case your scraping sound is once you carry on with the breaks, pads are maximum possibly wiped out. seem for groves interior the rotors, seem on the pad, they're interior the caliper, you need to have area between the metallic part of the pads and the rotor, even possibly as much as a million/2 inch. it they're almost touching the rotor, you like pads and particular new rotors in the event that they have deep grooves.

I would replace the brakepads, check the front wheel bearings, and races to make sure they are not worn out, or loose. Check the rotors to make sure they are within specs, and inspect upper, and lower control arm bushings to make sure they are not torn, or missing. Check out your ball joints as well.

Also check the radial arm bushings. The arms that go under the truck.
