ABS, braking question?

I have a 3 channel abs vehicle that im now installing a 4 channel rearend into and do not plan on using abs. As you can tell the abs sensors are no longer their. Can I just drive the car the way it is and have the abs edited out or what? Or will I have to install a abs delete kit? I would like to figure this out soon, while everything is still fairly easy to get to and I have the time to work on it.
thanks

Pull the ABS fuse and deal with the brake light being on. An ABS delete kit will work and save a bit of weight.

Steve,

Why pull the ABS fuse?

I have a taller tire on the rear so my ABS light is always on and I assume wouldn't be functioning. Why pull the fuse if the computer has already disabled?
