I had the same issue on my Sierra 1500 and it ended up being the rotors, take your truck to a brakes specialist or any other place you take your vehicle for a brake inspection and its most likely your rotors are warped meaning bent out of shape.

What does the ABS mean in your Ford truck?

ABS means either Antilock Braking System or Anti-Blockier System, depending on where you live. (What it does: if you stomp really hard on the brakes, it will rapidly apply and release the brakes for you, keeping you from skidding out of control and crashing.) If the ABS light is on in your Ford truck, that means the electronics that control the anti-lock part of your brakes are not working, and you need to take the truck to a mechanic.
