I had the same thing. Took me a while but the rear right was clicking only when going about 10-12mph and slowing through the same range. Determined it was the rear passenger side. Changed the brakes. It was still there but eventually went away on its own, i guess from me messing with it. I did alot of research on it and Ill share what I found out, but beware, some of this may sound condenscending. Check your tires for rocks. Check your brakes. If it only does it in turns on the front then its probably the outer cv joint. The front driveshaft rear cv joint goes bad frequently. If the boot is torn then it is usually bad. Thats about all I found after hours and hours of searching. I would switch my tires just to eliminate that after using a buddy to find out which one it is. And one more thing, could be the transfer case chain stretching, but not if it is coming from one of the wheel areas.

I have the same issue on my 2005 Liberty Renegade w/90,000miles. Sounds like it is coming from both back wheels and only happens at very low speed (5-15 mph) and especially when turning.

Had it in at the shop and turns out it was the Parking Brake Shoes. They replaced them yesterday and the noise has dissapeared, for now...

Well, late to the thread. Did you ever figure it out.

My 07 makes a slight clicking sound sometimes when I brake slowly at slow speeds - going straight, in 2wd. It sounds like it comes from the front, probably passenger side. It has done this for over 2 years since I bought it without getting better or worse. Brake pads and rotors look fine. I've stopped worrying about it, for better or worse, as otherwise I'm not aware of any mechanical issues with my front end.

Check your front drive shaft.... 10$ says the rear boot is torn on it.....

This. I had random low speed clicking coming from the rear passenger side for weeks before I figured it out. And yes, at first I was convinced I must have just picked up some gravel since it wasn't consistent with wheel speed. I finally got the chance to pull the rotors and the parking brake's friction material had separated completely from the backing plates and was just floating around the inside of the rotor. A new set of pads and shoes, and a good cleaning and setting of the star wheel adjuster and everything was right as rain.

I rode around with that exact same clicking for about 20k before I got off my keister and pulled the parking brake shoes

well.. that actually isn't entirely accurate.. I repacked the front cv's, replaced the front hubs, then thought about it for a minute and realized it was the parking brake shoes before I even finished that job, then drove around for 20k lol..
