Apparently my ex-husband made that mistake.

I got a few PMs awhile back when I asked if ABS brakes would work with a manual brake master cylinder from people wanting to know the same thing. Unfortunately I deleted all the PMs, so I'm just going to put a generic thread saying I tried it, and it works fine. I used an Aerospace Components Master Cylinder. I was a little dissatisfied with the way the brakes felt with the stock forwards, so I went ahead and did a front brake kit. I like to post pics. The stock stoplight switch will not work with the new master cylinder. Aerospace recommends putting a pressure switch in, but I thought that was more complicated than it needed to be. I made a little bracket, and used a stoplight switch from a mid 80s Chevy. Works great, and cost less than $3.
