Default Brake issues 98 Blazer,,

I just finished rebuilding the entire steering system,,All new brakes (Front pads,new rotors,rear calipers and pads)
New shocks,,Took it up and had the front alighned,
Now when the brakes are applied at a VERY low speed,such as inching forward in traffic,The brakes act as
if they shudder or the ABS is kicking in
DOESN'T do it every time and sometimes badly

What could be the problem? Any body had this happen??

Thanks

Did you use good quality pads? Cheap brake pads can cause the condition that you describe.

Dirty speed sensor,I replaced the right hub last winter and it was good
The other side had an abundance of grease in it and I didn't notice the grease 'peak'
when I pulled it out to remove hub for front end work,Must've been to much to get a good
read when slowing down

"Good to go"
