You have 4-wheel ABS.

4WABS you will see a wire leading down to the hub/rotor area of the front wheels. The rear ABS should be a sensor on the rear differential that is for both rear wheels

Here's a pic of my left front wheel......



If you don't have something like that, you most likely just have rear ABS only.

By MY '03, pretty much all F150s had 4WABS.
