Default Re: WQ Fiesta XR4/ST150 with Mazda SP25 engine

The Mk60 ABS Module in the XR4, with both ABS and stability control, is mounted on an angle up against the firewall. The bracket itself has part number 2S61 2B389-AC. The bracket itself mounts to the chassis in 3 locations - one on the firewall, one of the top of the passenger chassis rail, and one on the inside-side of the rail. (The ABS module then mounts to the bracket in 3 locations via large rubber mounting grommets).

It looks to me like I can swivel the ABS module up on the firewall locator, which would get the module up out of the way. I'd be willing to bet I could do this without having to modify any of the brake fluid lines - i.e. they should be able to 'bend' with the pivot.

The bracket would have to modified with additions to re-attach to the two chassis rail locations, OR if I could find a 2nd mount, I could make a hybrid of the two and weld together.

The diagram below outlines how I think this could work.
