What's the worst that could happen?

[blacknblue2002]

Messed up the other day...adjusted my Caster/Camber plates to lessen the negative camber a bit. My mistake, I didn't turn the wheels to check for clearance before the test run. Long story short, I've got some cuts in my ABS sensor lines now. No lights are on the dash yet, but I'm thinkin I should replace the lines. Anybody know where I can get some? I'm not sure that they're shot yet, so I've got them taped up for now, till i figure out what to do. Plus, is there anything terribly wrong with driving the car like this. I figured the worst that could happen would be no ABS. I still have brakes. FYI : i put the camber back to the way I usually drive, and moved the ABS retainer brackets further away from the wheel, so that no more damage can happen. Any info would be greatly appreciated

When I put wider tires on my Stang, I had some rubbing on the rear driver's side ABS wire and it chewed through before I noticed it, triggering the ABS light on the console. I drove around with the light on for at least 2 weeks before I finally got under there, and fixed it myself. It's real easy and probably a lot cheaper just to cut out the affected part of the wire, and splice in some new wire and tape over it. The ABS line has 2 wires in it and as long as you make sure you connect the right ends after you cut it, it works just fine. Been driving with my fix for over a month and no problems.


Just my .02 if you wanna fix it yourself.

Thanks for the info, I'll most likely give it a shot next time i have the car up in the air
