Ok, so out of nowhere my car started clicking driving at speeds between 20-70 mph coming from the rear driver side wheel area. If I happen to hit a bump it will sometimes stop clicking, then I will hit another bump and the clicking starts again.
My abs light has also started to come on nearly every time I start the car up and move about 50 feet. My brake pedal will also sometimes be firm, then "give" and become firm again. When I say it "gives", the brake pedal will feel like it does when you have to slam on the brakes and the ABS goes into effect. However, when it does give, the passenger rear of the car brakes hard.
The ABS thing I'm assuming is having to do with my rear brakes as I have never changed them and the car has 145,000 miles on it today (bought it @ 70,000miles). What concerns me the most is the ticking sound. The struts and spring are all original from 96 (i know, i know) and the lady who owned the car before did tow a uhaul a fairly good bit. There has always been a clunking sound from the rear driver side anytime I hit a bump as well. Any clues? Wheel bearing? strut mount? Any help with anything is greatly appreciated.
Sorry I didn't go into much detail, in the middle of yard work and need to get back out before it storms. If anything needs more clarification just ask and I'll expand upon it!

Could be brakes need doing too... hard to say unless you take the drums off and start looking.
