The guy said the previous owner disabled the ABS or whatever.
I go through this envelope of old receipts and such, and it says the mechanics ran an ABS test and the left front speed sensor had no output. They traced the circuit and found an issue with the ABS module. It had cracked and allowed dirt/debris to get in and caused it to fail.
They used their scan tool to control the hydraulic module and smoke started to come out of it, so it too is bad.
I can't seem to find the ABS module and the ABS hydraulic module anywhere, my truck has 4 wheel ABS and I guess they werent as common in 98.

Was at my fiance's next door neighbors wedding sat night. There are 3 sisters and two brothers and one of the sisters is dating the engineer/designer of all Pypes exhaust parts. Was kinda cool to meet and talk to the guy. Cool as **** too.
Turns out, that as of 4 years ago, he also makes UPR pipes too. Apparently UPR came to him to make their product. Been doing it since he was 18 and knows the Magnaflow etc guys from showes and whatnot.
I got his card, so I'll be picking his brain.

Yea well the last exhaust purchase and selling of my old stuff made $35. So I'm not losing money by changing exhaust. And shut up because I'm only helping the mustang world with posting vids of different setups. So suck it.

HAHAHA Thats a good reason to give your fiance. "Honey, stop busting my ***** about buying exhausts for the Mach, I'm helping the mustang world! We'll buy the damn flowers for the wedding in a couple weeks!"

next time you talk to him, tell him he fvcked up bad when he designed my h-pipe, and he owes me $120 plus gas since i had to take it to a shop to get it RE-ENGINEERED.
