Correct you do have 4 wheel ABS. Do a search here in superduty and you should find all you want about removing and cleaning your sensors. Check your ABS wires carefully to make sure they are not damaged. Good luck.
ABS .

Read all the good info you guys provided. Was having the same problem with the ABS and cx engine lights. Changed the ABS sensor, problem resolved. By the way, this is a 2000 SD witha 7.3 with 112k miles. Thanks.

No such thing as just front abs. Either you have rear wheel or all four.

I had the same problem and it was the VSS located on top of the rear diff.. cost $21 to replace and all problems went away.
My brake petal would go to the floor, the pulse even while in park. But the VSS fixed it.
