my truck has super sensitive ABS brakes, It seems like it comes on when it senses the smallest lockup. I know thts what its designed to do but I almost feel in more control when I can actually feel the wheels lock-up. Not to mention that when off-road going down a muddy hill its actually scary. ALL my other vehicles have not had ABS like this and my off-road rigs had no ABS. I know ABS is safer etc etc but it actually seems to make things worse for me. If I simply pull the ABS fuse will it just allow the tires to lock up?. I might do this to make it more comfortable for me. Please no "safety" lectures about the ABS system, I know what its for and how its supposed to make things "safer". Its just that I actually prefer feeling the tires lock up.

Just pull it. Or read 32 pages of very opinionated, heated discussions.
