what we done was took the pipes out the resivour and bypassed them if you know what i mean. no didnt bleed them with load on the rears.

ideally u need to loose the whole abs crap,its pretty easy to re pipe it,ive just snipped belts and been fine,but if the pumps are faulty it can effect how the brakes work
