Default 98 Blazer Brakes shuttering at low speed

So I have replaced all ABS sensors, on my vehicle (2) in the front, New front wheel hub assemblys, New brake pads, new calipers, all the way around the vehicle, It seems when i have my wheel turned to the right when makeing a right turn latly off and on my Brakes will shutter when i step on the peddle, almost feels hard to push down and it pulsates, I have Bleed all my calipers, new fluid etc...It only does this once and awhile, also my ABS light will randomly just come on sometimes, but it will go right back out, other than that the brakes are fine, it just seems when i am making right turns it likes to do that shuttering with the brakes...ANy ideas would be greatly appreciated.. ty

The pulsating you're feeling is the abs coming on because its getting a false reading from 1 or more of the abs sensors. You should get it scanned with a code reader that can acces abs codes to figure out which one needs help. Also did you replace the front hubs and abs sensors as whole units or were they replaced individually? its better to replace the entire unit with abs sensors already on them because their very sensitive to the distance between the sensor and the tone ring.

The front hub assemblys are Brand new and brand new abs sensors, I replaced them both brand new entire units,(hub assemblys) if i cant figure it out soon im just gonna drive without ABS< ABS is the worse thing ever anyway I hate it...I was just trying to get it working properly and have had no success yet, sick of sinking money into it with no better results...
