Front end Vibration when turning

[1997 Exploder]

Gang
Newbie here that needs your help. Let me give you the full background. I have a 1997 Explorer AWD. Recently I had sparatic issues with antilocks kicking in the last 10 feet of a stop. That grew into the brake peddle throbbing when braking. From both of these issues i decided since the vehicle has 176,000 on it that it would be best to just replace the hubs, which has the sensors in them as well as the brakes and pads. All looked pretty worn. So i have installed the hubs nutted down with 150 lbs of torque, (no Impact) was used and then new rotors and pads. Now on both caliper bracket sliding brackets where you bolt the calipers too were pretty tight but i managed to get everything together. Once together i took it for a spin. More or less when i turn right i get a vibration. It feels like power stearing is weak but i know that is not the issue. In my opinion it feels like the brakes are grabbing but uncertian. The vehicle does not pull to the right. Probably the root of the whole mess in the first place or maybe i torqued the center nuts down to hard on the axle.

Another note. I just took it for another drive. Even sitting still turning the wheel i get the vibrations. So maybe my issue above was beging covered up with the braking issue.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

humor me and check your steering resivior, fill it, and turn the wheels lock to lock a few times on the ground and check it again and refill.

mine shook horribly when the resivior was empty

air in the PS system was my first thought as well after i read his symptoms.

to the OP, make sure you leave the cap off while turning lock-to-lock. also hold it "locked" for 2-3 seconds on each turn.
