ABS Fitting how easy or hard?

(1/2) > >>

dod51e:
I have just bought two 1992 RRC's.  A Vogue and a Vogue SE.  The Vogue is the one I will be keeping as it is in much better condition (body and mechanical) and has the advantage of LPG.  My only quandry is can the ABS system be swapped from the SE to the Vogue and how easy or should I say HARD will this be to do?  Has anyone tried it succesfully?  Oh, and I will also need to put the non-ABS system onto the SE. I.E. Swap them over.
Cheers

Swap axles, ABS ECU and associated wiring, and the ABS unit under the bonnet....

Seriously, not worth it even slightly.

Range Rover Blues:
In your favour is that most accessorie fittings to the RRC are pretty much stand alone, the ABS no exception.  You will need the whole wiring loom for it, fitted into the dash etc.  You need the axles and master cylinder as said, I'm trying to thing what else.

I've heard of ABS being taken off before, which is easier.  TBH swapping the braking systems from 2 cars will be tough, inevitably you will have to cut bits off one to get it to fit the other, you'll end up short somewhere :?

Evilgoat:
Will the RR ABS ECU require re-initialisation, equalisation or whatever its called? I realise its an older unit but not sure if thats a Bosch or Generic thing that applies to the LRs too.

Range Rover Blues:
The ECU is farily easy to deal with, the fault cades can be reset with the blink test and AFAIK it is not 'coded' to the original chassis, you can swap them car to car.
