any way to do away with abs

[darrellk]

on my 94 i want to do aeay with abs, does some one make a kit, ohas some one done this

95cobraguy has. I've been thinking about doing it myself and having a linelock put in place in the process. I'll probably have a shop run the new lines from the m/c and I'll pull the abs unit and old lines out myself.

If your car is mainly a track car then all its doing is weighing you down.

With the way our cars stop and more power added to the car, I really don't think the weight of the ABS unit makes that much difference (prolly 15 lbs.). With the 347 in my car, it still has a hard time stopping in a hurry with drilled/slotted rotors and good pads. When I bought the car though, my ABS unit wasn't working, so I went and bought a used one just to get rid of the pesky light,

It really didn't make that much of a difference to my driving though because I grew up driving without ABS (yeah I'm old compared to most of ya) and knew how to handle quick stops in inclimate conditions. For the younger generation (like my kids), they learned to drive with ABS and could get themselves into a situation they don't want to be in real quick.

I'm sure there is a way though to just run a straight through connection on the brake lines where they come into and out of the ABS unit.

i deleted mine without using a line loc and spent about $5 in parts to make it happen. if anyone is interested in how this is done, pm me.

ABS is for sissys!!!!
No, not really, but i deleted mine due to the fact that I have a 3" intercooler and the lines were a lot easier to run than trying to keep that big ol' thing down there.
Just go to a good auto store and buy the lines as you need them, or run all new. Either way, you're just eliminating that big ol' box down there. Make sure you follow all your lines the right way though!!!

I open track better with it, honestly.

I've got taller wheels and tires in the back than the front so my car deleted it for me. I'll physically be removing it when I do the new motor.

 

[95strokerPSU]

I have two bad sensors so instead of replacing them I'm gonna ditch the whole thing.

95cobraguy I'll probably be hitting you up in the next couple months with some questions.

if you remove it won't the light be on all the time. how do you get rid of that then?

Take out the bulb.

the light wont be on once everything is disconnected.

i did it mainly to clean up the engine bay, plus i dont drive my car in the rain.

I removed mine while my car was apart, along with the power steereing, air bags, and related wiring. I am sure you can disconnect everything, but I pulled out a chiltons manual and removed all associated control modules, sensors and wiring from under the dash and in the engine bay then had to make a couple of brake lines. It is very simple, just take your time.
