    Pull the fuse would be my first thought. But that'd likely light your dash up.

    Remove the fuse !!

    Unless your talking remove the whole system .

    Then just run new brake lines from the Master Cylinder. By passing the ABS computer on the inner fender.

    ABS saves lives. Stupid to remove it from a street vehicle.

    It depends if one only ever drove vehicles with ABS brakes I agree !!

    Many people crashed because of years of muscle memory when the brakes no longer respond in the manner one is used to .

    That is a very scary feeling when your in a emergency stop and can`t stop.

    I'm assuming he drives on gravel roads.

    Abs is really fuckin stupid on gravel. (At high speeds).

    Just pull the fuse and put a piece of black tape over the abs dash light.
