Default 3 channel abs into a 9inch

What's involved in getting 3 channel ABS into a 9 inch without ABS? Is it easier to tune out ABS or is it something I need to not only tune out, but remove? Just looking at options as I've found a 9 inch locally.

You can't tune out the ABS. The easiest thing to do is to not hook it up, which will eliminate the ABS from working on the front brakes either. The ABS light will be glowing at you on the dash, and there are ways to eliminate that bulb. Bob

Can't do it. Get rid of that 9" since it's useless now. I'll give you $500 for it.

Correct, and by removing the rear ABS the front will not work either. This gets you back to old school brakes, the kind that allow the driver to modulate by how much pressure is applied. Personally I don't like ABS. Bob
