I'll chime in for Jeff.
The AP/Lockheed ones are just fine. Same price and brand as mine from Sobstory. Easy DIY repair. Nothing special regarding ABS.
Pinch off feed hose from resevoir so all the brake fluid doesn't spill out - if it does don't worry cuz it's isolated in the resevoir so you don't let air into brake lines. (don't perforate it)
Remove the rigid line fitting (flare wrench helps)
Cram head down by pedals and remove the two big bolts.
Remove the cotter pin at the pedal.
Back in engine bay, wiggle the thing until you can get it up and around the alt. Remove the small flexible hose when convenient.
Installation reverse of removal. I like to start the big bolts onto the m.c., then before its snug thread the rigid clutch line back on. It's easier to align this way and helps to not strip out the threads.
Bleed the clutch. I pressure bleed with my mityvac. Takes five minutes.
