I had a car do that before and ended up replacing the proportioning valve. Your mileage may vary.

Does it sound like the ABS pump is coming on when you say a 'grinding noise'?

could be a slug of air in the other side brake line. It took me 6 tries to get AIR the air outta the forklift brakes and that only has 3' of tubing ! A slight bend was allowing the bubble to go back and forth... sigh.

You changed the hoses and calipers did you use a tech 2 and bleed the brakes if not your ABS module probably has air in it. It wont cause the ABS light to come on but you wont get a good bleed without comanding bleed mode in the ABS
