Car sound issues

Ok, so i have a couple of issues with my car at the moment, only on the passenger side, and i suspect that i have a dragging rear caliper, a poor front hub, and a cv axle that is going out as well, i took a video last night and happened to get all three, the clicking sound in the video is the phone vibrating on the steering wheel

Seems like you've narrowed it down fairly well. Keep in mind it's rarely the rear calipers that seize. More so it is the sticking emergency brake cable that fails to fully release the caliper.

So the problems i was having were loose bolts, and auto zone brake pads...(don't judge me i was a kid when i got those) so got the bolts tightened and also replaced all the pads with new napa premium ceramic pads today, pretty sure the duracrap scratched my rotor so now i need to get it machined cause it squeals...
