my brakes also have a high pitched noise right before coming to a stop. They also feel like the ABS is off as I have to press hard on the brakes for it to stop, I had the ABS fuse taken out before when my ABS light came on and this is what the stem of the whole problem was, I took it to get a new MVI and they replaced my front right passenger hub and got the ABS light off and passed it however the car was horribly pulling to the left afterwards and brakes vibrated and would press back up when coming to a complete stop.... it was then brought into a Ford dealership and they looked at it and replaced the front driver side hub which fixed brakes pushing back up problem. But its still pulling to the left when braking... So I had the ABS fuse out for a few months before I took my car to either shop and the brakes don't feel any different like not easy to press or more responsive etc. now why would that be? I consider setting the truck on fire everyday I look at it and I am always in a bad mood after driving somewhere :( Any ideas what is causing this BS?
 












well it seems however my wheel is positioned when I hit the brakes it locks it in place almost I cant really turn or anything when braking....
