I know there aren't many out there, but I have a question. Has anyone done away with all that extra stuff on the brakes? I am not sure exactly what it is, or what they do. I think it has something to do with the abs.

What about that thing in the back that has a spring going to the rear end?

i replaced it with a t, its just a proportioning valve that works under a load. if you lower the truck with it on its like haveing a load in the bed, the brakes will lock up.more weight = more brake
