Hello all ,
Since my ABS hasn't worked for years I am finally ready to delete it in order to clean up the bay and make room for other stuffs. I need to purchase a tubing and brake nut kit to do my installation but I dont know the size or thread pitch of the nuts , I know the line is 3/16" though !! Does anyone know what fittings I need to get to do this mod ?

PS: Please dont turn this into a "why you shouldn't remove your ABS" thread, thanks.

 

M8x1.00

 

where is the best place to buy brake lines and the fittings for them? I have a flaring tool and need to redo some of the lines.

Also, the lines themselves are 3/16" and the fittings that go on them are M8x1.0?

 

Or you can use one of my kits less headaches lol

 

That doesn't answer the OP's question.


I bought all my fittings from a local company called EVCO House of Hose. The fittings, new lines, and T was around $100. And I still have plenty of line left after tucking everything too. I don't recall how many fittings I used off hand but I'll check later if you want. You can also use the stock proportioning valve off the side of your ABS module which works unless you want to control the F/R bias then use a T off of that for the front brakes. There's a few write ups on previous members setups and how the lines are routed. Let me know if you want more info.

GL with the project.

 

For the OP:

I was talking with a fairly well known fittings supplier who is spec'ing up some new products for me and showed them a pre-made ABS delete kit.

They had significant concerns that the fittings were aluminum (and the guy who owns the company has been racing for years) and felt very strongly that a different material should be used for the fittings in this application.

Something to consider.
