I just completed an ABS to non-ABS braking system swap on my '92. I changed the hard lines, booster, and master cylinder. Since doing the swap my rear brakes are catching and I have adjusted them several times. Any thoughts as to what it is up? They where functioning fine before the swap....

Did you change the proportioning valve (the silver block attached to the booster that the brake lines come out of?

What does "catching" mean? Locking early?

It is functioning fine (as far as I can tell), but while driving you can hear it rub as the wheel turns

Make sure the dust shield behind the rotor isn't touching the rotor. The adjustment should take care of rubbing pads - do you have all of the springs and anti-rattle hardware on the pads?

There's nothing about removing ABS that should cause that sort of noise.
