Welcome!

Easy fix - don't break so hard! In the wet you must be gentle on the brakes or the abs will be activated.

Also if you have oversize rims and tyres fitted it will influence braking negatively.

A 4x4 is merely a machine that enables you to get stuck further away from civilization.

thanks for the reply but this happens with very little pressure on brakes and previously had muddies was bad and changed to bridgestone duelers a/t on 15" rims and now running a/t on standard 16" rims can understand if braking hard the abs but seems that they come on most time and only in the wet
