Anti-Lock Breaks delete

Im wanting to delete my abs brake system in my f150 2002 2wd all disc brakes.

I have to change the module with some kinda valve? and turn off the Abs in a tune?

I know the basics of a brake system, but im lost in the abs stuff, any help or parts i need,

thanx

Why do you want to get rid of the abs?

You can't just pull the fuse, You have to find the ABS control module and disconnect it there. Most are under the dash and a big square box. Doing that makes the brakes default to normal function, You don't need some weird *** kit to do that.

Our test drivers would pull the ABS fuses all the time to disable the ABS as part of NHTSA FMVSS 105 and 135 vehicle tests for stopping distance. In many vehicles you have to find the correct one of the two fuses.

And for the next question, we had almost a dozen F-150s in our test fleet.

That fuse runs other stuff, You can't just pull it without loosing power to lights, radio, etc.. what ever is also being feed off that circuit. Just pull the connector at the ABS box and the light goes out.
