I just picked up my trailer fenders for under the hood, after looking i need to know what will be the best way to relocate the ABS on the driver side, and other than moving some wiring around what else do i need to do..
if it matters I have a 3.0 flex fuel

we made a new bracket for mine. wasn't too hard. mounted it off the ac compressor bracket. bascially we moved it to the left and up a bit. gave me all the clearance i needed

we didn't extend any of the lines...just manhandled them a little.Since my ABS light is on and it's probably not functioning i'm probably going to pull it.

so you can just take it out, nothing else you have to do?

i was giong to say if you guys are thinking about taking your ABS out completely i would definitly get a proportioning valve for the rear to prevent it from locking the rear up so easily. i was planning on deleting mine when i get around to it.
