Default Growl at low speed braking

Okay sports fans, I am in need of some wisdom. I have an '03 Dodge 2500 5.9 diesel dominatin road crushin pull anything goat that is having a braking problem. When I apply the brake all is good until I get down to about 20-25mph and the the goat growls like grinding brake pads. I know this not to be the case because I have replaced all brake pads, rotors, and calipers, trying to fix this problem. I have even checked and cleaned the ABS sensors thinking some rust had built up and pulled away from tuning ring. This to has failed to fix the problem. Hubs are smooth, no grinding when i freespin the wheels. Does anybody have any other ideas? I am about this close to human sacrifice to apease the diesel gods if I can't figure this out.

Default update

I just replaced the hubs, thinking that the tone ring may have lost a tooth (fyi neither one was missing any teeth). With new hubs, I still have a growl at low speed when braking. I am a little frustrated.

Sounds like metal to metal? Tires can sometimes make a weird noise when braking. Inspect all wheels for metal particles. Check rims and fender wells for rubbing. TWo humans and a goat for the gods should work!

What pads are you running? Ceramics often growl at low speeds.
