I thought that I had read some where that if you do the e-locker swap thing that you loose the rear ABS? what about with a ARB?
Thanks

Not real sure on the E-locker housing. The ABS sensor sits on top of the third member. It's a magnetic sensor that senses if the ring gear is turning or not. I am not 100% if the Toyota E-locker has this on top of the third. However, If you install an ARB, or any type carrier replacement traction device, you use your existing ring gear (not that it really matters) and you use your existing housing, therfore, yes, ABS will still function normally <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

You will loose your rear ABS with the e locker (no hole for the sensor).Will work with the ARB(uses your housing) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

If you swap entire axles from a Tacoma or 4Runner there is an ABS sensor on these axles, which is a ring on the end of the axle shaft, and there is a wiring harness that you can plug into. Now, weather or not this will work with the 2nd gen ABS system, I dont know.
