Okay i got a new Clutch for my 92', I got it back and ever sence the Brakes wig out every time i turn left and apply the Brakes, the car thinks the brakes are locking up, so the Anti-Lock starts pulsing. Any one have any Idea what it could be? I don't think its safe to be driving because I can't stop around left hand turns.

Thanks,

Sounds like they screwed something up. I'd take it back to them and let them know about it in a major way. Is your ABS light on?

Well I thought about taking it back to the mechanic, the only thing is that it was a friends dad that worked at GMC dealership, and did the job after hours in the GM shop, he gave me a pretty good deal to do the job, he put in a clutch kit, new rack n' pinion, new AC compressor and recharged the AC system, and only charged me $250 labor, ever place else I tryed to take it to wanted 45-80 bucks per hour to do the job, I know he put in a lot over 10 hours to do the job, so I think I got a good deal, except the Brake problem. I'm just wondering any one else has had this type of problem before? seems odd to me, I've heard about some sort of speed sensing ring, could that be the problem, if so how do I fine the bad one?

Thanks all,

I have a feeling that the front halfshafts were not tightened all the way. Go and pick up a 30mm axle socket.(autozone loans these for a refundable $15) Attach it to a 1/2"x18" breaker bar, and try to get a cheater bar on that. Leave the car on the ground, and just pop the center caps. Tighten those nuts till you can't anymore. You should be done then!
