Kind of asked for that didn't I? Aha
I get that, was just curious if the kit differed in say brake length part or something else due to having abs or not, still very new to all this

The only difference is the non-ABS kit has a little L-shaped bracket to lift the brake bias valve’s spring up so that it’s level again after the lift...

I used to use plus gas which I liked but having worked on elderly motors all my life I have found soaking with pen. oil even after days does little to help. WD40 is weedy. I even used plasticine to make a reservoir of the stuff to soak in where possible with no effect. Breaker bars, blowtorches and air weapons do help a lot soooooooo can anyone suggest a effective pen. oil??

Better get saving I think, as either way a few bits of stuff need doing
