I put some 1.25" wheel spacers on my truck the other day and now when i hit my brakes my steering wheel wobbles pretty bad. It never did it before I put the spacers on.. Any idea why the steering wheel would start wobbling?

Well when you add spacers, it gives the tires more levrage on the main stearing componets, Tie rods, center link, etc, Take them back off and see if it goes away.
If it does then you need to add a heavy duty stearing stabilizer shock to it, if possible,... Any way think of it like this, Hold your arms in close to you body and you feel more stable, Then when you put your arms out to your side your more off balance and not as stable, Same effect on big tires, and spacers. It is also posible your rotors are warped and just did not notice it untill the spacers were added, , Without the spacers the suspension could have been taken the vibration. And never even notice the Laterell run out in the rotor,
