    I had the brakes done by Dave @ DPMotorsport & he did a great job
    Thank you Fella
    Now i have another problem when i brake hard the rears are locking up i think its to do with abs there are No senors on the front but they are still on the rear & powered up
    so can any one tell me were the fuse is to turn the abs off
    Or am i braking up the wrong tree & do you have any ideas

                with the front sensors disconnected the abs system will be already switched off, disconnect any sensor or the level switch and it automatically goes into fault mode and turns off, the abs light should be on, or the bulbs missing lol

                    Could it be that there are two differnt compound of pads ferodo ds2500 on the front & mintex on the rear ??? Do the ds 2500 pads need to warm up 1st

                      im sure they are a compromised pad, fast road and track biased, so may need a bit of a warm up to get the best out of them.

                        As you are running the OE 4x4 set-up, the rears should be very difficult to lock-up as they are linked to the fronts via the drive-train? Something isn't right.....

                        With regard to the bias valve, where do you have it set?

                          It should be easy to set using that then
