Is there a way to tell if you have 2 or 4 wheel ABS without looking underneath the truck??

1998 F-150 XLT Lariat 4.6L

4 wheel abs was standard on my 97 lariet package.

so it was probably standard on the 98 lariat. Thanks.

 

I think ABS is pretty much standard on all the trucks.
Mine is a Lariat & I have it & I know its on XLT

 

Is it 2 or 4 wheel ABS on 97 XLT's?

4, do your brakes feel way underpowered?

 

not so much underpowered but real rough and pulsing.

 

The easiest way to determine if you have 4 wheel ABS is to do a panic stop.

When the ABS is working, you'll hear something like a reciprocating pump coming from under the dash area. That's the ABS in the engine compartment pulsing the brakes.

If you're feeling pulsing in the brake pedal when braking under non-panic conditions, you have a warped brake rotor.

 

The 97 and 98 XL and XLT models had standard REAR only ABS. The Lariat came with 4W ABS standard. There was an option to order 4W ABS on the XL and XLT models.
