Legacy777 Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 There should be a bolt that holds it into place. However with time they get rusted in there. So you may need to squirt a lot of penetrating oil in there and try to gently tap it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danbob99 Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Under the fold up part of the rear seat(that you sit on) i believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy777 Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Yeah....if you follow the brake lines, and see where they go into the cabin, there is another rubber grommet that has the ABS sensor wiring going to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
