Well I guess it depends on what you're trying to do. ABS delete? LSPV delete? ABS & LSPV delete?
 
Abs and lspv, the more simple the brake system the better

Ok, I used my pics and added notes to show you how to do an ABS and LSPV delete. Hope it helps, let me know if anything doesn't make sense.

Here's what you do with the ABS lines. Green lines are kept, red lines get deleted. You will use one of the red lines to reconnect the front brakes as noted below:

Here's what happens with the tee underneath the MC and its lines

Then the elbow in your driver's side fender well

And lastly at the rear where the LSPV is/was. Clear as mud?

Ok so I bled the brakes again. This time I got under the truck, and I unbolted the LSPV from the axle, and zip tied the arm up against my frame so its pretty much disabled. Then I got to work bleeding everything including that LSPV.

What a PAIN IN THE ASS! Seriously, that thing has to go. I must have laid on my back for 15 minutes while my buddy and I did the brake bleeding dance, and i was listening to bubbles in there, but never saw any. And my buddy was reporting back that he would have pressure, and then 3 cycles later he would lose all pressure.

Anyhow, we did the best we could, and the test drive showed improvements. My peddle is firm, but braking is still weak. This is only the 2nd time ive driven on the brand new front rotor & pads, so I hope after a break-in period things begin to improve.


As I was cleaning the garage though, I found the copper crush-washers that were meant to go between the brake line & caliper. :eek: woops, guess I have to get new crush washers, pull the wheels and install them. Then go back to bleeding everything all over again. But this time, I am not going to have a LSPV to deal with!
 
What kinda brakes did you put on?
