Anyone had trouble with SJM kits? I have installed an ABS delete and line lock kit from SJM on a 02 Camaro. I have two kits on hand and had to use the LL valve from the other kit in order to get the thing to stop leaking. After a few brake cycles it too started leaking.
It appears that the leaks are coming from where the valve spool itself is assembled. I have dissassembled both valves and dont see any reason for the leaks. The orings are in place, clean and free of any defects. Has anyone else had issues with this type of kit? I will be on the horn with them Monday I just wondered what others are doing?

Seems like maybe the put to thin of an o-ring on. After those few cycles the rubber probally get very soft and allows the fluids to pass by. I'd say get the same size o-ring but thicker. Just my $.02
