Thread: Removing ABS pump

So I thought I'd remove the right front wing, after I figure out how to get the Safari snorkel off.

Anyone removed a wing? Will this give me access to the ABS unit?

You could try remove the snorkel first and get access through the hole, but yes generally removing the wing panel is easier.

If you loosen the pedal box you can get them out on a TD5 Defender without removing the guard

I just accessed through the snorkel hole, twice. First time to wire up bypass out of switch, the second was to replace the switch when that didn't work.
There where three nuts attaching the snorkel which are accessed through the wing access panel. Three nuts to seperate the modulator from it's mount. Three nuts to remove the mount and push out of the way so you can get a number 4 allen key up in there to remove the, you guessed it 3 allen bolts.
It's keyhole surgery, best to be zen like and not have anyother plans.
