Default Just changed wheel hub on 02 Chevy tahoe. Still hearing grinding noise

Like the header says, I just got done changing my front two wheel hubs. The brake pads and rotors looked good when I had them off. However, when I reassembled the front and took it for a test drive, I was still hearing a grinding noise from the front and the abs light came back on again along with the parking brake light. Any ideas here?

get a diagnostic scan with a pro tool to find out what the light is trying to tell you. Did the new hubs come with ABS rings, and did the sensor sit nicely in its hole?

I'm headed for a scan tomorrow. Just worried driving it because it grinds like crazy. I can tell it's the brakes by how it sounds but the sensor fit like a glove when I installed

if the grinding is that bad, then you should be able to see something. Maybe something went wrong in installation so check your work

Are you sure it's not the rear brakes cause I have a 2001 gmc yukon and it seems like every time I think i know where the noise is coming from it will be the opposite. Like if i think I hear in the front, it will be in the back. Are you sure one of your pistons isn't sticking in front calips
