  • rear axle

    I picked up a complete rear axle a few months ago, I have not got around to installing it. I do not have a LSD so is why I bought it. I thought I had traction control but I do not. So the axle I bought had traction control, but my car does not. Can I still install it on my car? I realize the brake lines are slightly different, so is one issue but will it hurt not to hook up the wiring on the axle?

        The gears and LSD will install in your housing and you can then keep the ABS working.

          That is what i was thinking, I can pull it out myself of the donor axle. I do not feel confident in installing so would have to pay someone to do that. Glad I figured out the difference before pulling the old one out and attempting to install the new one. Plus I figure I got extra rotors.. calipers.. axles etc now. I might keep my current gears they are 3.42 and the donor axle was 3.23.

            Make sure you have the ABS ring from you open carrier put on the LSD when you do. I would keep the 3.42's too.
