Man i'm glad I live in a state w/o inspections.
Does this mean that when I run 37s w/ 3.73 , 4.56 in the future, on my 10-bolt I will no longer have ABS and the dash light will be on?vhato said:I am not sure why swapping in a 14-bolt would post an ABS code. As long as the gear ratio does not exceed 4.56 and the tires are no bigger than a measured 35.5" (37" on the tire) ABS should be fine. I assume you could swap in a 14-bolt drum brake setup and ABS would work just the same.
This is correct, the 14 bolt will work if you dont rip out the wheel sensors in teh front or the vss in the back. But in your case with 5.13s you are going to have the same issues as you would putting them in your 10 bolt. Your problem is not the 14 bolt but rather the gears. You might have heard me say my ifs wont work, that was when I was going to run a np205 and was going to have to bypass my vss or something, now im not doing that, just running a 241 which the vss plugs into. Do keep in mind though, using drums WILL change your braking.vhato said:I am not sure why swapping in a 14-bolt would post an ABS code.

The ABS/Speed Sensors are located on the output side of the transmission and on both front wheels.
Where is DarkEternal at when you need him?!?!?! He did or is doing this. I would think it would work.
yeah i know that, but to mate a ford 205 to a 4l60e you need two very $$$ adaptors from AA, so it wasnt worth it to me.willyswanter said:You can get an adapter that screws into the 205 speed cable that will create a vss signal.
Thanks for the helpsnigbertese said:if you go with 4.56s and reprogram it, youll be fine, but 4.88 and 5.13s will not work with abs. westers is trying to fix this problem, pm vhato if you want a better explaination.
Well yeah I know what the 80 has :crazy:Dark Eternal said:27, 4l80e is 32.
