But each outlet out of the ABS unit is specified to a certian brake line. You wouldn't want the ABS unit functioning on the wrong brake. Its an old thread on hear with a a ABS diagram in the century forum that shows the outlets for each brake.
hi i just did my rear line rust. check this out go to popularmechanics.com on how to bleed brakes, some abs units have bleeder bolts and some you need special scaner to cycle the pumps and valves.fotunatly i din't need one either, the way it is design the lines come from the bottom of abs controller on my 1998 lesabre and then all the lines come up higher then the abs unit so that they act like a trap (abs full of fluid)if i were to change the lines out from the bottom of unit air would get in the abs controller and then i would need the scanner.how did you bleed your abs controller.
