When I had one semi-collapsed accumulator on my '85 wagon, the ride was
fine with no load but when I towed my sail boat the ride became very
bouncy at highway speeds. Replaced both, problem solved. I compared
the old and new by inserting a rod to see how far down the rubber
diaphragm was, the

soft surfaces?
I think you'd just have to do something like interrupt the power to the 'brain'

ABS is good on wet/icy/dry pavement, and bad on soft surfaces.
One soft surface that is perhaps appropriate for ABS

more likely than a skid.)

I'd seriously considered buying the house across the street from us so I could
tear it down and burn it in our woodstove last winter... They were selling so
cheap and it was in such poor condition I figured the lot would be worth more
if I tore the house down and put up a nice garage.
