ABS install

Post by aperson » Thu Aug 23, 2007 10:38 pm

I found an R/T that I'm going to be swapping engine, trans, harness, and pcm and all that way I can have the secondaries factory wired. I was wondering what I would need to put ABS and Traction control into my car. I think that the timing rings are built into the axle because when I went to replace my axle from when I got my car from the junk yard they sent me one from a car with abs and it had some weird thing on the side that goes into the tranny. Any suggestions?

Anybody? Could somebody at least tell me where the abs sensors are? Are they in the tranny or on the wheel hub?

Since I have done a SRT rear disc brake conversion I can tell you the rear sensors fit through the knuckles and pickup on the hub rings. Switching to ABS would be no easy task and would require ABS specific computer/master cyclinder/wheel sesor/ hub rings/proportionaing valve & pump.

I'd end up replacing the entire harness for the car if I wanted to do this then wouldn't I?

R/T's came with ABS standard right?

Would I have to switch to rear discs if I were to do this?
