I am also experiencing a problem with my rear only ABS 98 CC 4x2. Brakes
work fine on smooth roads. When I apply the brakes with the rear wheels
traveling over a washboard road or a pothole the ABS would kick in giving
the feeling that the truck isn't slowing down as quickly. I end up having
to apply more pedal pressure to get it to stop. I can hear the ABS clicking
when this happens but don't feel any rapid pulsing at the brake pedal.

Yep, I get that feeling too. Kinda like the brakes aren't really
grabbing, they just keep sliding, right?
