Default Used front hubs ticking

I just had the whole strano suspension and a 12 bolt installed along with a set of used hubs I bought from local member off a firehawk with less than 10,000 miles. Has any one replaced the front hubs before? the right front is making a ticking noise when you decelerate. I was going to put my original with 80,000 miles back on unless there is a break in period on the hubs.

Jack the car up and see if you can wiggle the wheel while its still attached. If you can then your hub is bad, which would most likely explain the ticking. If you cant, then there is something strange going on. Oh and there is not a break in on the hubs. Its just a roller bearing inside it

Thanks for the info. Sucks to have just installed all of this and now have a ticking. I am going to put the old one back on the that side.
