Rear Antilock Light

ok, i got an 88 f150 obviously. im driving through the hilly terrain of s.e. ohio. put it in 2nd to come down a steep hill. i level out and put it back in drive when i notice a light on the dash that says "rear antilocks". i dont know if it came down on the way down the hill, before or after that. but its never come on before since i've owned it, and didnt turn off till i shut off the truck. but it drove fine so no worries there. im just wonderin what it meant? any help'd be great

I would "guess" that your brake fluid is low, or at least seemed to be so while coming down that hill.
