I am leaning towards the SJM ABS Delete Kit for the T/A. Anyone use this kit or one like it? I am looking for feedback and/or pro's con's.

Their website looks like it's from 1996, any resellers on here? (I don't think Gail offers em)
We didnt use a kit on mine... just removed the abs box and t'd some of the lines...
@American-Powerhouse. ^^^^
T'd and a prop valve on the rear. Could be done for about $20 but I ended up spending almost $100 after killing 3 flare tools and about a handful of unions and line sections. Couldnt get a good seal on the stock lines so I ran Nicopp all the way back.
We were gonna T the lines regardless, but this SJM site caught my eye when I was looking for line lock kits.
$140 is a bit steep for pre-bent lines, prop valve, and fittings. I'm not trying to be cheap about it, I just want clean and plug-n-play stuff has been the name of the game with this build lol
I didnt even add a prop valve... [emoji33]Quote:

SJM kit is nice except the flaring block, it sucks. Get a good flaring block
Truthfully you're better off sourcing the pieces you need separately. Kits are nice, but they're kits. For a truly clean install, you want to have room to run things as you see fit. I will say for a FACT that AutoZone, in each stores back room, has a LARGE brake line fitting display and they carry every fitting needed on our cars. Line is cheap, fittings are cheap, a halfway decent flare tool (for hand flaring, I HIGHLY recommend the Napa Service Tool sets. They're the best I've used hands down), and you're off and running.
Thanks for the mention, but I'm not involved with this stuff...yet. :D
Maybe down the road, if you guys find something that you like that you think works well I can explore that idea.
Your better off just buying the solenoid and make all your lines. Just make sure you get a quality flaring tool, I bought one from NAPA with different size flairs for around $90 but was well worth it. I screwed up a few lines using cheap autozone crap...
Sadly, I am familiar with the AutoZone brake shrine in the back haha. I'm still leaning towards the kit. I may save some coin with a DIY job, but I like simplicity especially when there's a good change of not doing something right the first time. (lazy, I know) Also, if the car was sitting in my driveway, it'd be different but it's at a shop right now getting put back together.
Thanks for ALL your input, guys. It is much appreciated!
I Teed mine off like some of the others and no prop. My brakes seem to work better now than before . I will say the plug n play set ups are way better looking! Mine is not the best looking but works awsome and removed that extra weight n space..
Same here.Quote:
