Ok so here is the deal i have searched the issue and can't exactly get a straight answer on it. I don't want this to become a roaring bonfire because i know i am newbie. What better place to find my answers then ZILVIA.NET. Ok so i just purchased everything to do a five lug conversion but, when i was ordering they asked me if it was ABS or not. What is the big difference between the two. I am thinking it just has to do with a sensor in the hub? I just want to make sure. Please correct me if i am wrong. Also i am wanting to do away with the abs system so help me here if i am wrong. I am almost positive that i can just run a line from the master cylinder to the porpotioning valve and that should bypass the ABS distibution block. Again correct me if i am wrong any help would be appreciated.

Thank You
Jonathan Hartley

Front hubs have a sensor ring for the ABS. Rear sensor is in the diff. You can use either front hub unless you're keeping the ABS.

Run new lines from the MC to the block on the frame rail and to the front calipers, remove the ABS actuator.
