the first thing I'd be looking at is if the sliders were properly lubed. If the pads don't press evenly on the rotor than they'll chatter. I'd also look at the pads, did you get grease on them when you were installing them? A quick cleaning may be in order. I'd also clean the rotors and be sure to scuff them with some 120 sand paper to remove any shipping sealant that may be on the rotor.
