Default Lengthen ABS Lines

I need to lengthen my rear ABS lines. Has anyone done this??

I have been told numerous options by so-called "experts", which seem to contradict each other.... Some say solder ends, others say don't solder - use joiners.... as these options can/will change the resistance and cause the ABS Warning Light to stay on.

I would like to hear from anyone who has successfully completed this mod, to see how the job was done.

When I swapped to rear disc the sensors had been cut so I soldered them and used heat shrink and didn't get an ABS light.

Cool

You won't get an abs light regardless of which way you do it. just make the connection tight, clean and covered from the extremities.
