"Tick, tick, tick" sound from rear wheels after driving

'94 Mark VIII 170k
Front suspension = shocks/struts
Rear suspension = air bags

I just replaced the battery then took it for a drive. When I stopped the car I heard a slight ticking sound. I followed it to the rear wheel. So I went to the other side and it was making the same sound. Is this anything to worry about? I'll see if it's still ticking in an hour.

Both sides? I think you may have a split/crack in your rotor. It's driveable but needs to be replaced. At least it's the rear.

Could just be the brakes cooling off from some serious stopping. If there is a very large amount of heat coming from the area, you could have a sticking emergency brake cable or rear caliper causing the brakes to drag a bit.

That could be possible. Is the sound close to the sound of cooling exaust manifolds? (im talking about the ticking)
