1997 4x4 ABS

Hey folks, I just had an accident about a month ago and it was related to my ABS. It was coming on all the time on slippery (ice and snow) covered parking lots/roads. The accident caused me to hit a building at low speed (less than 10MPH) I had an extremely hard pedal when i went to brake and pulsating action and noise. This continued for a while with the ABS light coming on and going off. It also appeared to magnify the effect if I turned to the left and applied brakes.

I installed two new wheel bearings with new sensors PTC branded. The rear ABS sensor is new as well. This was all done this past summer.

It just seems way too "sensitive" to me. Now that the roads have dried up and most areas are de-iced it hasn't done it again.

Any ideas where to look for potential problems/sources for this "overactive" ABS?

Thank you ABS now I have to buy a new front bumper!

Thanks you anyones help
