brake line routing for abs system removal question
I have removed the abs pump from the right front framerail of my 92 4runner, but I have a question I have not yet found a clear answer to on the forums...
The master cylinder has two lines going out - one connects to the calipers and also goes back to the lspv, and e other goes up to the abs pump.
I have removed the line going back to the lspv from the abs unit, and connected the rear brake system to the line going up to the T fitting at the right caliper. I wonder if this is correct...
I removed the abs because it never worked well, and I am putting disc brakes in the back. I think I will be replacing the master cylinder soon, with a fj80 model.
Lots of abs removal threads out there, but I cant seem to find one that clearly explains the brake line schematic before and after.

on my 19914runner there were 2 lines that ran to the ABS pump. both came from the 2 T fittings on the passenger side frame rail. I just took a peice of 12" long hard line and connected these 2 locations and mine seems to work fine.
I can take a picture of said Line tonight if it stops raining and post it up if you don't understand what I am talking about.
This is a temp solution for me. When I switch to discs in the rear all of my Brake lines are getting re ran.
I would run a Front line to a T then to each side. Then a rear line to a Manual proportioning Valve. Then a single line all the way back to a single Flex line then a T on the rear axle to a hard line to each rear caliper.
This will delete the LPSV and all the unnecessary Brake plumbing.
