Hahaha! No, it won't be too much stopping power. My ABS is disabled as well. In fact I pulled the entire ABS modulator. It stops like a normal vehicle now.

little late to update this, but they were out of the defender calipers, so I just ended up putting a used disco one back on and it stops great again. figure when I wear out these pads i'll go for the defender, but in the mean time she can stop again.

Who's "they"? I got my stuff from Justin at Lucky8. And if he is out(which I doubt) Will Tillery has the D90 set up for sale on Dweb now.
