installed spc camber now no ABS

alright so i dropped my car about 2 1/2" in the front so i assumed that i needed to install the spacers that came with the spc kit......but once i put everything back together my abs tries to work at start up and the brake pedal feels real stratchy and tries to work but then the car shuts off the abs

it says in the instructions that i need to use a non magnetic feeler to check the distance but where can i get this non magnetic feeler??

also i got my alignment done so i'm guessing i couldn't just take the spacers out and not do an alignment again?

what i hear is, the spacers on the spc kit are the problem.. a shop suggested they take off the spacer, but it will give less adjustability

So you installed the hub spacers, did you install the ABS sensor reloaction thing? Did you follow the instructions that mention to be careful not to bend the abs sensor relocation bracket?

The abs sensors just have to be a certain distance from the hub to work.

i did install the relocation kit and i didn't bend it because i'm very careful about my car.....but i guess it still too far because on the intructions it says that if it does go off then you have to bend the bracket slightly to achieve the distance but i don't get is how i'm suppose to measure the distance because its suppose to be like 1/8 of an inch or somethin small like that
