Tricking the ABS? shoebox? Anyone?

I just put a 9" in my car, and until I can get a gear mounted on the driveshaft yoke to have functional abs again, is there any wasy like a resistor I can trick the ABS system to think that the back sensor is hooked up and working properly?

I think it would be safer to shut off ABS competely, than to be giving it signals about the rear wheels that aren't necessarily true. I'd pull the abs fuse.

Forgot to add, will the brake system function like a normal braking system w/o abs, when I pull the fuse?

Assuming your brakes work normally now, yes, normal brakes with no ABS.

Seems like I read that someone had a trick for it, but I don't remember it. I don't have one, myself.
