This is my first posting

I bypassed my controller under the bed on the driverside with steel line/flare/union. Left it plugged in. My truck only had rear ABS. It must be speed controlled in the center section. Brakes work fine. ABS dash light on sometimes only when truck is not moving. Many more gremlins left to work out.

Dodge Cummins trucks didn't get 4 wheel abs still like 2000. The 1st gen abs is crap. Unplug the abs controller behind the glovebox and do away with it. Have normal braking as you would with a non-abs pickup.

My ABS light was comming on at a idol. I replaced all rear wheel cylinders, calapers, pads, shoes, master cylinder and vacume booster. Everything working fine now. Check your vacume pump and your vacume booster for leaks.Low vacume will cause the ABS light to come on.

You could do anything you want , but ,and there are many , I do not know when 4 W abs started , I would guess about 97-98 , it would cost a lot in parts and labor that I wouldn't think that it would worth it , you'ld have to change axials or fabracate the old ones to bolt on the sensors , add wiring harness , computor ,is that enough or do you need more reasons not to , unless one doing a very expensive custom truck.
