Angry ABS & Brake light on?

Yesterday I was on my way home and my ABS & Brake light turned on and then about 5 miles from my house it sounded like the front end was going to fall off. I creeped home in second. If it is wheel bearings wouldn't you get more than a 10 mile warning?

Depends on how well you pay attention to what the Truck is telling you.
Usually you will hear or feel a difference long before it gives out.

Glad you made it home...

After doing some research it sounds like the hub assembly. Tearing apart now.

It was the passenger side hub assembly. Bought a new at Napa for $250 and installed in about an hour. Drove around the block and ABS light and brake light are off. Wish they were all that easy
