just curious, if you're replacing because you had a ABS lockup. If not I will share my experience for anyone reading as it might save you a tire or two, or at least a pair of underwear.
Recently had a ABS lockup on our new SPB last month at VIR. Thought it was odd because we bled the ABS system with our PIWIS. Well, our new procedure is bleeding with PIWIS and cycling the ABS by driving on a loose surface and activating ABS. On our car it took about 5 stops with ABS activation to bleed out the ABS system so it did not lock up. The lines on this car had been drained completely and the ABS module removed and sat on a shelf for several months during the build. This is a good idea to test BEFORE you go into T14 at VIR at 130 MPH
Hopefully this will save someone some teething issues in the future.
