2000 f250 front end screeching?

Hey guys. I have a 2000 f250 with a 7.3 powerstroke. I bought the truck and had no problem. Then went to take it to get alignment after I put a lift kit on it and they told me I needed new ball joints. I put new ball joints in it no problem, and then it got to the locking hubs. I think they are warren locking hubs? Idk definitely not stock because I know how easy it is to take on and off the stock ones. Well I tried putting the hub in best I could, have had it out and tried it a million different ways and could not get them 100% right it seemed. I would drive the truck and when I turned a loud screeching noise came from the front end and now there is a low sound and almost vibration I feel. I’m assuming it’s the hub? But idk. Idk if I should try to mess with these aftermarket hubs any more or just buy oem style? Or is that even the problem. Thanks

You can take the hubs off and drive it if you think thats the problem.
Are you sure your tires aren't rubbing on something?

Yeah I know it’s not the tires. It’s a loud pitch nose almost. I’m honestly scared something is going to break while driving it.
