Braking Problem After Changing Struts

[oneaviator]

I just replaced the front struts and now when I apply the brakes they feel fine up until the final few feet before complete stop. There is a rapid pulsing that can be heard and felt in the brake pedal. I was very careful not to damage the ABS speed sensors when I removed them. Any ideas would be helpful.

The problem only last about a second and then the car comes to a stop. This happens in the last 10 - 15 feet.

found the problem. There was too much grease in one of the speed sensors. Cleaned it out and everthing was back to normal. Sensor couldn't pick up the magnetic impulse.

Thanks for everyones input.

no link, I felt it had to be in the sensors so I just took both speed sensors back out and noticed a large amount of white lube in one socket. Cleaned out the excess and the problem was gone.
