[Re: 4x4troy] #1048638 08/04/12 01:18 AM Joined: Apr 2011 Posts: 326 Sac-area, California - USA Peabody Mudrunner Great news on the rear axle swap. I just picked up an axle from an '00 so I can install the lock right-style locker that shipped from Korea. I figured the 28 spline axle assembly was a direct fit in the 26 spline Sporties. But I've thought that a few times with some other mods, only to find that I was wrong. So how did you disable the ABS? Did you just remove the speed sensors? Is it giving you an ABS light on the cluster? Just curious.
