    i looked at installing it, its fairly simple is you have a few days, you need to fit the pulse rings, the sensors for the pulse rings, then the ABS Module, then replace the brake lines to allow the metal brake lines to go to the ABS modulator and then to the brakes.

    oh ok, is there any example of how to remove them and install them at all, also are abs hubs needed at all or anything?
