    So to delete your abs you only need those 2 lines that you had pictured? I'm assuming they are just off a non abs truck.

    What is the Camelback discount for TW? I order from there all the time and never new we get a discount.


    Excellent write-ups by the way!

    Well i ripped everything out up front and just replaced the two main hard lines up front yes. The tiny line was used for the other MC. But if you keep your original one you won't have to swap that or the 3 way split.

    I think it is TWPartz

    I'll have to look for it again when i get home later.

    Thanks!

    No. haha sorry man. I really appreciate it. But if i go. It'll be on my own dime.

    I won't be short of funds. I just am not sure i should spend the money.

    Not sure I'm following you. Sounds like you are saying I don't need any other lines it's just removing what is there. I haven't really looked at it much. What are you considering the main lines?

    I removed all the ABS lines and the controller. Really, if you don't want the ABS on...just pull the fuse and you don't have to worry about anything.

    But you can't just pull the ABS lines as they get pressure from the normal lines. Make sense?

    If you remove the controller, you have to get the new lines.

    OK. I think I understand. I want the space the controller is taking up. My manual hubs don't accept the abs sensor so I really have no use in keeping it.

    @Blackdawg how are the bed bars holding up with the RTT? Changes or alterations you'd make/suggest? I'm jonesing for an RTT pretty bad, but don't want it up high on a bed rack.

    Working great! No complaints at all. About as high as I'd run a tent these days. Doesn't lean too bad. Can still feel it but not like my old one at all.

    Tired of the topper life huh? I love the rtt. Works great for what I do.

    Had it on for months with way way harder wheeling and it never budged.

    Maybe something with knurling or serrations for the mount would help.
