abs issue, clicking / grinding noise

i've done some reasearch with no results :(

anyways i just replaced my axle and now the car makes a hard grinding and popping noise when i brake at slow speeds. i took out the fuse for the ABS module and it brakes fine. it sounds like the notorious spring binding grinding noise from inside the cabin and friends say it sounds like a clicking noise from outside.

the abs rings are good, no damage on either one. sensors look fine as well. everything was good before replacing the axle. any input would be great.
