ABS (at least on my Volvo) is an independant ECU.
It relies upon four hall sensors, one on each wheel. Assuming the Hall sensors can be mounted properly and can be made to affectively send a signal, is there an aftermarket ECU system specifically for ABS brakes? Rich |

You need the ABS 'pump' and electric valves at each wheel. It wouldn't be too difficult, if you could get a stand-alone ECU working.

Aside from finding a specific ECU for this...which must be out there somewhere. I figured to pillage all the rest of the parts from a junkyard. Our rotors are pretty standard size if you look at alot of the smaller cars, volvo included. Yes, I do drive in the snow. I also Ice Race...ABS is awesome there. More interested in using it at an autox...it really allows you to brake later. Rich |
