Why do my ABS kick on when I am trying to stop on uneven roads or in a turn.. My brake pedle starts vibrating and the truck is hard to stop
If this issue is at low speed roughly five to ten mph it is a sign of a bad wheel bearing as the abs speed sensor reads off of a tone ring attached to the front bearings, when the bearing gets too much play it causes the sensor to receive an eratic signal making the on board computer activate the abs thinking the vehicle is sliding

the problem is most likely a wheel speed sensor at one of the front wheels. retrieving a code in the abs system could pinpoint which wheel it is. i believe the wheel speed sensor is part of the bolt on front wheel bearing assy. if you plan on doing this yourself and are mechanically inclined. you will need an a/c volt meter to check sensors. let me know if i can assist further.

I WOULD NOT KEEP DRIVING IT.WHEN ABS LIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON.YOU HAVE BRAKE FAILURE. TOW IT TO DEALERSHIP HAVE IT SERVICE.AND CHECK THE ABS BRAKES SYSTEM .BECAUSE ABS BRAKE SYSTEM IS NOT A HOME FIX.BECAUSE THE ABS HYDRAULIC MODULATOR UNIT HAS LOWER FROM HOME POSITION .IN ORDER TO MOVE THE MASTER CYLINDER FROM UNIT.YOU NEED A TECH 2 SCANNER TO DO THE JOB.TO GET ABS BRAKES TO BLEED RIGHT BEST TO GET THEM PRESSURE BLEED INSTEAD OF MANUAL BLEEDING GET LESS AIR IN SYSTEM.THAT WHY SEE DEALER SHIP HAS THE THINGS TO DO THE JOB.

No such thing as vacuum lines to the master cylinder. You do have a vacuum line on the brake booster (power assist). When you step on the pedal do you hear a whoosing sound down by your pedal. This is a leaking Booster. Needs replacement.
When you step on the brake does the engine rpm change. This is a leaking check valve (one way air valve).

you have to fix the problem with ur brakes- first check the wiring ,connectors and connection clips to the abs sensors and modulator if looks ok than have truck scanned some auto stores such as auto zone / advanced auto do it for free the code will give u a start point towards fixing ur problem--visual inspection of brakes doesnt always show problem

Or you could just pull the fuse for the abs and not have abs but you won't wreck from pulsating pedal.
