Default Need help with hurst roll control

Just wondering if anyone know how to intall a hurst roll control on a 02 chevy silverado? I have had the thing for over a year now and want to install it since I am putting my new set up in. I have never installed a roll control much less put one on a truck with ABS.

On the older vehicles w/o ABS the front brakes tee off a common point usually at the proportioning valve, just have to tie into the brake line between the master cylinder and proportioning valve.

On ABS vehicle you need to have the roll control installed after the ABS unit, could cause some damage to ABS unit. On the NBS truck the ABS unit feeds each front wheel, no tee section. I think you might need to install 2 roll control unit, one on each front brake line. This might be best way because the ABS unit cost how much ($600) and roll control cost how much ($125)?

i believe someone on here did it, but backwards, he would hit the rollcontrol and then the brake, it stopped flow to the rears instead of holdin pressure to the frotn, u hold the pedal and buttom then the gas

I was thinking the same thing. I was going to install one on each front brake line. I was going to use the cheaper b&m ones thow. After the abs unit. Would this work? Or should I just hook one up to the rear and call it a day?
