When i changed my front hub, i bought the ones without abs like i have in the past for my other vehicles because they are cheaper. I did both sides in the front like this. Will this hurt anything? and is there any way to bypass the abs computer/get the light to shut off? Other than cracking the dash open. I mean i have to crack the dash anyway cuz my 4 full time light is out but you know anyways just let me know? :?: :?: :?:

I don't know of anyway to make that light go away short of pulling the bulb.

Why didn't you just spend the extra to get the ABS hubs? The cost difference between ABS hubs and non ABS hubs isn't that much, and you really can't put a price on safety...

I kind of hate abs and i really dont need it. I can drive pretty well. i know it helps but i just dont like it. plus needed the extra money for the lift. lol. I was just wondering if it would screw anything up like the 4wd or anything.

If you get into an accident (especially if someone's hurt) and it's found you bypassed a safety feature you're in deep. Rain man was a good driver too.

You will be held responsible as your insurance company can deny coverage.
