Can I install an Antilock Brake System on my 2001 Honda Civic LX?

Question

It doesn't come with ABS from the factory. I wanted to know if I could get one and just "bolt it on" to my car? If so, how much will it cost me and how can I get it?

Answer 1

my husband is a mechanic and he sincerly doubts you could ever find the parts and most likely extremly difficult to put in

Answer 2

If caught quickly sufficient, a flush is all that's needed. factors circulate undesirable from the portion of an infection. So if the grasp develop into the place is started with a sparkling grasp could be required. only went by way of this with a diverse Honda product. The grasp did require alternative, whether it appears that evidently that flushing the traces have been given the issue solved without further factors. an infection takes 2 varieties by ways, one form eats up the seals and yet another eats up the metallic factors. If the brake fluid grew to become corrosive then there's a sturdy probability new brake traces could be necessary too. the form of solvent (that assaults the seals) can attack the brake hoses on the wheel places.

Answer 3

this is something that comes equipped from the factory. I've never heard of anyone wanting to install aftermarket ABS on a non-ABS car. It is unheard of. It has to do with safety issues and only can be found on a factory car that is already equipped with it.

Answer 4

yes you can. but the parts cost is going to be much more then if you just bought a car with abs.. think you would need alot of stuff. computer, ABS unit. sensors all the wiring and hydraulics, and brackets etc to do it :)

Answer 5

I think you'll neverbe able to find the parts for it. And I think you're better off without it. Yes, you think it might be safer, but get ready to pay a bunch of money if you find the parts.

Answer 6

there's alot more to it than that.

you would also need to hook it into your onboard computer, So no i don't think this is a feasable idea.
