Hey guys. My ABS light has been on for about a week now. Today i smelled burning brake pads and saw smoke coming from the right wheel well. I stepped on the brakes and it pulled left. So i'm assuming the calliper is locked up. However, i'm not too familiar with the ABS setup. Anyone have experience with the ABS lines?

The ABS is a sensor near the axleshaft ujoint that picks up a signal from a tone ring. You don't have to mess with it when replacing that caliper.
Sounds like your right front caliper is seized. You can run the caliper piston back in and shoot it with WD40, it may work fine. Then again it may seize again, up to you to replace with new or not. I've ran mine back in and it works fine.
