Rear ABS Bleeding

Greetings guys, I am going to replace the steel tubing running back to the rear brakes because of severe rust and corrosion. It hasn't started leaking yet but with my luck I will be hooked up to my fifth wheel trailer getting ready to leave for Maine and I will see a puddle of brake fluid on the ground. Just being pro-active. My Y2K F-250 SD PSD has rear aniti-lock brakes. Just wondering if there is anything special I need to know when replacement is done and the bleeding begins.

Thanks

If it is RABS there should be no problem. There is a RABS solenoid module on the left side frame rail (assuming they haven`t moved it for 2000) about level with the drivers feet. When you have the new pipes on bleed right rear, left rear and then the RABS module and you should be fine.
