Yes once I got mine I was wondering why I didn't just make one for half the price. I must say I hate flaring break lines. The tool I got in my kit sucked and didn't work. My friend came over with a tool that looked the same but worked flawless every time.

Thanks guys, this is just what I needed. Have any of you had any issues with breaking without the ABS?

None whatsoever. You just have to remember you DON'T have it.

It's too bad no one sells the front wheel hubs without the ABS sensor in it. That would be another 3 lbs of weight removed from the front.

And Jegs sells a Line Lock for $30 or so. Pretty much all you need besides a few small fittings and some one to share directions

Can't beat the mastercool setup. They sell a hydraulic line crimp tool as well, pretty effing sweet.

I drove my car with the ABS inactive (28" rear tires and 25.5" front tires) and never even noticed a difference. My brother didnt even know the ABS was inactive until I pointed out thats what the "ABS INOP" light meant.

I will be installing my SJM kit here soon. Luckily a buddy of mine did his Aerospace brakes and bought a bad *** flaring tool.

Those hydraulic flaring tools are freaking sweet. It almost makes flaring fun...almost.

Nice! However I would have no use for something like that with these big fat 275/40's up front.

With a proportioning valve it should be fine, Gen II Vipers didn't have ABS till 01?.
