I have finally solved my non-engaging front axle issue. My right front hub is loose. So it looks like I need to buy a new hub assembly, however I see that there are ones for trucks with ABS and ones without.

my truck has an ABS light on the dash I see every time I start it but it does not act like it has ABS (never felt it work) and I do not see any sensor wires going to the wheels.

So, do I have ABS or not? what is the best way to tell for sure?

thanks for the help pacmule

 

Are there two different ABS systems on dodge trucks? One with ABS hubs and one without?

Open your hood and look up, there should be a sticker that says what kind of ABS you have.
There were two ABS systems in '98, rear only was stock, 4 wheel optional.
If you have 4 wheel there will be a control unit under the hood with brake lines going to it on the driver's side rear fender.

 

Thank you very much, that is what I needed to know. Mine is rear only.
