FMU mounting with ABS
So I was out in the garage doing some preliminary fitting, and ran into the issue of where to mount the FMU. The normal spot is already taken by ABS and its lines. Anybody mount elsewhere, or run into the same problem? Anybody have pictures of alternate mounting? Thanks

Passenger shock tower mount works fine.

I'm currently removing the giant zip-tie repair of the front bumper that the PO did such a lovely job on. I had a Frankenbumper.
Gives me a chance to repaint it, though, which should be fun.

engine braking...... Just modulate them suckers. The advantage with Non-ABS is the pedal feel. Although I finally got mine to where I'm 100% satisfied with them, a little soft to the touch, but I can smack my head on the steering wheel if I'm not careful.

ABS means no flat spots. I'll take that with expensive V710's.
The only time you will out brake ABS is in dry, and only if you mash your foot to the floor. If you brake to the threshold of the ABS it's the same as doing it to the threshold of lockup.
ABS for teh win in the wet of snow.
