Default SJM ABS Delete

I'm looking at deleting the ABS from my 97 this winter but the SJM website has me a little unsure about the Linelock option.
It gives me the option to select a Linelock or "no thanks, I have my own", which suggests to me I have to use one with their kit.
I don't have a linelock and as I'm not a drag racer don't really have a need for one, so can I run the SJM kit without a linelock?

You MUST have a linelock with there kit, it will not work without one, they're lines are bent for it. I'm about to go install mine and hopefully do a writeup since there isn't one in existance

You can always jsut bend your own lines to a t fitting if you dont want line lock.

There really isnt a need for a write up, after doing this earlier this summer its really easy. But off old line fittings, intsall T fittings, run to supplied lines/selenoid/proportioning valve. bleed brakes. drive car

Hmmm, didn't want a line lock - is the SJM installation manual downloadable from anywhere?
Thanks for the responses.

Just call SJM, he'll get you the parts you need. I used some SJM parts and bent my own lines using some straight sections from Advance. I didn't want to run the lines over the spring tower, I ran them underneath.

I don't know of any step by step manuals online, but search the Drag Racing Tech forum for SJM and you'll find a lot more info/pics there. I've been looking at doing this eventually too but will be adding a LL.
