Check brake discs and pads. Then check all suspension jounts and bushes.

First thing to do is check your fluid level, and then whip the  wheels off and have a look at the discs and pads and renew any suspect parts. But if you need to ask this question it suggests that you may not have a lot of experience working on braking systems and if you are not confident you may be better getting one of the mechanics that frequent this site to have a look at them for you :y

Check for obvious things,loose wheel nuts,etc, have a look at the balljoints on the track rod ends,if they're gone they'll be squashed and split, usually the cause of a click or a small knock when braking is a loose balljoint travelling,
