Default ABS brakes

Do all 2004 dodge rams have abs brakes?? Reason I am asking the abs light came on today with the brake light(emergency). I understand it could be the speed sensor. I got underneath the truck and see no electrical going to rear brakes at all. I just replace a front bearing and I know it does not have front abs. Was wondering if the lights would come on because of the speed sensor even if no abs aqre present.

Yes, your Ram has either rear wheel abs or all wheel abs.

While I was under the truck I noticed moisture on the inside of driverside front tire. I checked it out and the brake line had a leak, I replaced the brake line and now the abs and brake light has went out. Must have been a indicator that there was a brake problem and not just a bad abs sensor.
