First, I drew up and then fabbed this bracket in the prototype shop at work:



It holds the stock proportioning valve like this:



And hangs the valve under the master cylinder like so:



I bought another stock FD rear brake line splitter to split the line going to the two front wheels, since a tee for this size brake line is nearly impossible to find. I made a bracket for it as well, and mounted it like so and plumbed everything up:







There are a few clips I need to make and install to keep the lines from vibrating in a few places. Comments and questions are welcome...

why did you delete your ABS?

 

Probably not for any logical reason.

I did not have a functional ABS pump on hand and didn't want to bother with finding/buying one. The stuff I needed to delete ABS altogether...the lines and splitter, only cost me about $60. So I went ahead and did it. I still have all the ABS lines so I can go back someday if I find a deal on a pump.

 

well it looks clean! not sure if I would delete my abs, but this seems like very clean solution to those who want to do it

 

i am in the middle of doing the same accept i am using a milwood rear brake proportioning valve and a line lock kit

 

I think deleting my abs was the best thing that ever happened to my FD. When I auto-x'd my car with abs it seemed that it would come on to early for my taste. I noticed a huge difference in brake control after I deleted my abs. In my opinion FD abs sucks, so I would say nice idea.

 

I'm kinda looking into this myself, I preferred the braking on my 86 GXL much more without the damn ABS.

 

If you are truly going to remove your ABS, there's the heavy ABS Unit in the driver side rear panel area. I was hoping you would've elaborated more on that removal process in this project. But apparently it wasn't a full blown abs elimination project, more of an abs pump failure, work around.
