Default Pulling ABS fuse

How do you pull the ABS fuse??? I want to get rid of it so I can have different Overall Diameters for my 17/18 wheel combo.
I dont really want to waste money on a delete kit, just want to pull the fuse.
Thanks guys!

Do just that, pull the fuse. Our kits are certainly not a waste by any means. Here's a few things you may be overlooking by just doing what you are considering...

It is is one of the best bang for the buck mods:

1)Weight removal, There are not too many mods that can remove 15-20 lbs of weight from the engine bay without spending a rather large amount of money.
2)Clearing up the engine bay to which increases radiant heat transfer.
3)Removes clutter
4)Easier to work around engine

5)Most importantly, you have the ability to use our proportioning valves to correctly adjust for brake bias adjustments...this is ESPECIALLY important when your ABS is inactive or not working correctly.

Maybe after reading and considering the above, you may feel a bit different of just pulling a fuse.

I would highly recomend an ABS delete kit with a porportioning valve. Without it, any kind of panic stop and the rear will come around.

well, I ordered 17x7's for the front and 18x9.5's for the rear. Going for the staggered look and I want bigger tires in the rear.
I ordered 235/50x17's for the front and 275/40x18's for the rear. I didnt want to lose ABS, so I kept the OD of the tires within 1/2" of eachother.
The problem is, the 235's have a taller sidewall than the 275's. I really dont like the look of it, at all.
So I'd like to just lose ABS so I can get those huge tires back there and little ones up front.
...I just needed some daylight, I see what you guys are talking about with the fuses. I noticed theres about 3 different ABS fuses, one for the Bat....one for TCS and I forget the other.........pull all 3 or what???
Thanks!
