ABS conversion

Lets just say theoretically that i was going to take an 190E without ABS and put ABS on it. Lets also say that I could get all of the parts for free...is it worth it?

What makes you think that you can get all the ABS stuff for free? LOL.

My friend is going to take his ABS off because he doesnt like it. Maybe he would sell it to you.

Maddog, don't do it man. What a major PITA. There are so many different components that need to be added. Unless you have a WHOLE lot of spare time, I would say forget about it.

I guess I won't do it then if it really isn't worth it.

190E ABS

One thing that you have to change is the whole Back Axle.

The sensor for the rear is built into it.

Also the wiring loom is different.

let's put it this way:if you REALLY want ABS that badly, it'd be easier to sell your 190 and buy one equipped with ABS. far more to change than is practical or cost effective.
