ABS Issue

Having an ABS issue,
I thought it was the hub going bad, since it was on its way out. I replaced the Hub assembly today and i've still got the issue.
It seems that ABS is engaging at partial turning while applying the brake.

It also has new pads and brakes too. Hasn't done this all the time unless the truck was at full lock and braking.

Any ideas?

hopefully i'll get around to it. Timken's aren't cheap.
I'll clean the rear diff sensor tomorrow. I think it may have something to do with that too. I noticed a small leak coming out of the front of the pig.

I'd rather not have a light on in my dash. I'm a mechanic, i don't like my own **** to not function properly.

It may have to be a weeknight to look at it. I'm supposed to be going hunting on the weekend.

I'll text you.
