Cool Brake Problems

Ok I Have A 97 F250 4x4. The Problems Is That When I Am Driving About 60 The Speedometer Atarts Jumping Around And So Does The Tach. The Abs Light Comes, The Cruis Doesn't Work. And When I Apply The Brakes They Are Ok The First Time I Hit Them But If I Hit Them Again Back To Back The Pedal Is Very Stiff.

The Repairs I Have Made Are As Followed I Have Tried To Had The Codes Pulled No Luck. I Have Replaced The Vaccume Pump And It Doest Not Help I Have Surched The Post And I Have Seen The Rear Abs Sensor A Couple Of Times. Could This Be It I Have Looked At The Sensor And Mine Was Lose So I Tightend It Up But No Change. Please Help It Is Driving Me Crazy The Ford Dealer Ship Just Wants To Continue Replaceing The Vac. Pump.
Thanks
