I think the weight reduction is up to 14 lbs if you also remove the harness.

That's pretty close shevrolayz28.

14-16 lbs is about the typical. LT1 setups loose a bit more since their components are heavier. If you have traction control, all in all, about 20lbs will be removed on an LS1.

So you it's best to order the LL along w/ the ABS delete kit? I don't have a need for the LL but I just want to be sure I understood you 1st.

Thanks.

You NEED the line lock solenoid. If you do not have one, you need our kit that includes it. It is only a 40.00 option of which you can't even purchase a LL solenoid alone for that price PLUS when you purchase the LL, you receive the entire electrical kit as well.

We only offer the kit without a LL for the folks whom already own one. We offer it this way so that those customers do not need to re-purchase a component they already have.

If you don't have a double flare tool, we offer that as well.

For the 93, you have 3ch ABS, so you'll need either SJM-1ABSX1 (complete kit with flare tool) or SJM-1ABSX2 (complete kit without flare tool). Be certain to select "3 channel" option upon checkout.

All kits are in stock.

Thanks Steve. I'll be calling tomorrow. You don't ship using US Postal Office by chance do you? Stationed overseas and that's how we get our mail.

Steve, any chance you'd be willing to cut me a deal on a partial SJM-2ABSX1 kit? I need everything except the solenoid and proportioning valve.

I just got done installing mine a couple hours ago. The SS lines are a bitch to double flare but I finally got it. I'll post pics up sometime this week. The ABS module and bracket weight in at exactly 10.5 lbs on an LS1 car.

Call me. I'd suggest returning your original proportioning valve since you'll need additional fittings and mounting bolts for it anyways, I'm not sure if it will adapt to our system... I don't know what solenoid your using.

The kits I'd suggest is 139.99...it depends which style though since I don't know the solenoid.

...call me 724 478 5580

Steve,
Last summer I removed the TCS stuff out of the engine bay that I could, to remove clutter, and now I want to finish up the cleaning by getting rid of the abs junk... is it possible I could get a 3 channel kit instead of a 4 channel? My hesitation to buy a 4 channel kit is that in the future I'd like to replace the current 10 bolt to a 3 channel 9" rear end, and so I assume I wouldn't be able to use the 4 channel kit at that point, right? Thanks for your help!

Just so you know unless your planning on re-running your rear brake lines that wouldn't work. Steve correct me if I'm wrong but it's my understanding that the cars that cam from the factory with a 4ch system have 2 lines running from front to back for left and right brakes. Those with 3ch from the factory have 1 line running to the rear that splits this is the main reason for the different kits...


BTW Steve, I was thinking about getting SJM-1ABSX1, and just wanted to verify this is all that's needed if I already deleted the TCS control box on my valve cover...

I guess I was thinking there might be a sort of 2-to-1 piece that would take both of the rear channels, and then have a single coming out of the other end (baically joining the two into one)... Otherwise, if I end up getting a 3 channel rear-end in a few years, is it possible to leave one of the channels in the 4-channel kit open, or cap it off or something? I'm just trying to figure out a way to be future proof...
