and checked all the leads and connections fuse's are all good. what do i do next?

You are just wasting your money by replacing all those parts. You need to get the codes from the abs system to help you diagnose the problem.

i had to replace the sensors any how i put new hubs. is there a way to pull the codes with out taking it in?

You could check resistance and clean the ribbed piece that the sensor detects. Pics and resistance info here:http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=288629&highlight=abs+resistance

So I was looking through the scan tools that advance sells and some of the scanners can now read ABS codes. So I called Advance and they had upgraded their scanners so that they can now pull the ABS codes. I had them pull the one on mine, replaced the part that was faulty, and so far so good. Just letting everyone know that the dealership isn't your only option anymore to have your ABS code read. At least the parts stores here are upgrading their scanners to read ABS codes. I called around and 3 of the stores had the scanners that could read the ABS codes now.
