heres a picture of what pipes go where just cut all the old abs out, and make some pipes up to go from the cylinder to the t piece on the inner wing then the extra holes on the brake resvaoiur you can either change for a none abs one or link the two up with a bit of pipe

Dont like it, there are better ways.

Using the std rear compensators is shit.

Lowered cars and big wheels working with the STD stuff on the rear wishbone will result in problems.!
