Unhappy front end problem???

Just finished rebuilding the frontend on my F350 I put in new ball joints, u joints, rotors and brakes. I took the truck for a test ride and now have 2 problems, 1st there is a noise coming from the frontend it sounds as if something is rubbing but I see nothing, 2nd the truck pulls hard to the drivers side . Before I repaired everything there was no noise and the trunk didn't pull to the drivers side, but the truck was eating up the front tires.
Any of you guys have a clue what the problem might be ??????

figured it out. caliper slide pin rusted so bad that they were not working. brake pads were hanging up on the rotor not letting the wheel turn.

Good detective work. I did read somewhere here about those slide pins binding. It's good you figured it out.
