So recently replaced everything brake wise. Now when I'm coming to a stop, slow or highish speed, I'm getting a banging noise. Brakes are working fine from what I can tell but not sure  what it could be. Any ideas?

Replaced: Drums, wheel cylinders, all hardware, shoes and worked the ebrake (after the banging) to see if it was an adjustment issue. No luck

U joints were all replaced. I think the adjusters were just too lose. Some people suggested driving it in reverse and hitting the brakes a few times. It's getting better slowly. Going to take the drums off this weekend and see if anything is funny looking. It wasn't doing it prior to the brake change.

Other than that the brakes are working great. Good lockup but think I need to lower the rear load sensing valve down a bit. Since the rear was lifted up it is sitting a bit high.

Check your front caliper bolts. I had one back out and the caliper would lift up and bang the inside of the wheel upon braking while driving forward.

Funny you mention that. One of my idiot troops thought one bolt would be good enough. Caliper came up and cut his brake line.
