Odd feeling when coming to a stop.

Odd feeling when coming to a stop.
98 ranger 4.0 4x4. When I'm driving and come to a stop at a stop sign, I notice when the truck stops there is a bit of movement following the stop. It's hard to explain. But it almost feels as if something else is still moving. If I'm creeping along(10-15 mph) and hit the brakes to a complete stop it doesn't happen. Has anyone had this feeling in their truck? I have felt this in bigger trucks F-150s. But didn't expect it in a smaller truck.

Welcome to the forum
Reads like you have a brake problem, I know DUH
Could be some air in the system somewhere
not in a caliper or it would pull to one side, but in a brake line
I assume the master reservoir has never run dry?
And you haven't had to top it up recently?
And do you have RABS or 4WABS?
Look in the engine bay by the master cylinder for this: https://www.ranger-forums.com/attach...s-imag0044.jpg
If you see that unit with 5 brake lines you have 4WABS and that unit may need bleeding which a brake shop needs to do

To be honest, my uncle passed away it was his truck. So far I've replaced o2 sensors, valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, etc. Just checking off the list as I go. I know at 230k+ miles I needs some TLC. But I'll do a bleeding of the brakes and check the levels tomorrow. Thanks again I'll reply with whatever findings.
