Cool pulling now locking up

I have had an issue in the past of my truck pulling/diving to the right when braking. Took it to the dealership and they have put new rotors,calipers, lines,pads on. this will fix the problem briefly but then goes back to doing it. Now the left front tire will lock up when braking on mud,sand, snow...my thought is....ABS control/modulator. Has anyone had these issues and if so, what did you do to correct it?
Thanks in advance for any info.

Scott

Alot of things will cause this.
Mis match of pads (compound) Ford had TSB on it awhile ago
calipers not retracing the same amount from the rotors
caliper slide pins worn
A pinched brake line somewhere.
Could also be in the rear brakes of the truck.
Yes it could be in the abs ,but not likely
go out and test the abs in a parking lot it should pulsate when activated.

Also after repairs we like to set the brakes in or temper the pads .A couple of good hard stops when the pads and rotors are new .
