Rear Anti Lock light

Just about every time I drive my truck over 10 miles on the highway the Rear Anti Lock light comes on. The tires are the same size all the way around. Its a very clean truck and seems very well taken care of so im not too sure what to think. I havent looked at it yet, its too cold outside haha. The rear is a little saggy so Im not sure if that would cause it? Has anyone had something like this happen?

Not to hijack this thread but I've got a rear anti lock question as well. My anti lock light works fine as it's not stuck on but every time I get on the brakes hard on a slick surface the rear wheels lock up and never release until I let off the brake pedal. I've looked online and seems the only thing I can find is regarding the anti lock light being stuck on. Where would a good place be to start trouble shooting why the anti lock isn't working? Thanks! I have a 95 4Runner V6

I have the same issue on my 93. I have flushed the brake system, and I'm talking over-flushed

Might want to pull the drum off and make sure they're not full of oil from a leaking rear axle seal. Oil in the brakes will make them grabby and prone to lock-up.

These trucks don't have sensors at the wheels, the sensor is on the top of the differential. You can pull it out and have a look at it as it might have a bunch of metal slivers on it. That sensor is usually the problem.

I have found that the abs on these trucks is a joke. I usually end up disabling it and ripping the modulator out and put new lines in. Also it is not very smart. Right now I am not feeding the modulator with any hydraulic pressure and it thinks everything is fine.......
