SJM ABS Delete was curious if anybody uses this on a DD car. most of my searches found people that use it for show/track cars. how does it behave on the streets? do you have many problems with the brakes locking or flat spots? the reason i ask is my abs unit is leaking pretty badly and i need to do something about it. ive found a few abs modules, but id rather not trust used brake parts on this car if i can avoid it. for those who have installed this kit, was it pretty easy? any pointers?

Normal driving will not be changed. Actually, you'll have more control over your braking as you'll be able to adjust your brake bias via the adjustable proportioning valve.
It's not for everyone...if you're one of the folks who relies on ABS and activates it all the time (when you want it...not when you don't), then you probably don't want it. If you've never felt your brakes pulse...you've never used ABS...So you won't miss it.
The kit is easy to install. All brake kits come preassembled with all fittings necessary. You don't need Teflon sealant even.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Hope you get everything situated one way or the other.

plus two on the flare tool. Do yourself a big favor and use a good flare tool. Their tool worked OK on the factory lines but the new lines in the kit were tough. I ended up breaking their adapter and went and bought a ridged flare kit, and it was like night and day.
small price to pay really
