buy a haynes repair manual and save your self a shit load of money and do it yourself!... or start finding some people in your area with J-body's and hang with them and become friends.. alot of those people are more than willing to help you out of no charge.. and you learn along the way and makes you more familar with your car. I have met up with about 20 people in my area and have one buddy who does vinyl and owns an aftermarket store, custom fabs( got my intake from him and engine mounts)... i've done alot of my work at the guy who does the custom fabs in his shop with his lifts. Not sayin you have to do this, but in the long run you'll make some new friends and save money fixing your car and spend it on modding it!

ok try this, alot of times when new brakes are put on (if done well ) all the sensors will be taken off. if so dirt and other such things may get stuck on the sensor itself making the ABS light come on. The sensor makes the computer think that one wheel is going faster then the other in a turn. I would pull the sensor off and clean all of them like crazey this may save you another bill. good luck
