as said before, the piece behind the axle is for the abs, there is a wire that goes to it, one on the axle carrier for a speed sensor, and then the abs control unit under the drivers seat....you said something about a wire under the hood? there is one that hooks to the master cylinder that is for the fluid level, which will light up the brake warning light if it goes too low with fluid...., not sure if with the abs stuff unhooked that if you leave the one for the fluid level hooked up that the warning light won't come on because of the abs stuff unhooked....
as you said, you could just make a hose and tie the hard line on the frame to the passenger wheel cylinder on the axle, and be alright..
