Default 4 channel to 3 channel questions

I sold my 9" and am trying to just stick a rear under it to get it driveable, found a 10 bolt with an Eaton HD and 3.73s for a song, but its 4 channel and mine is 3 channel.

Since I dont have a drill press I cant drill the 13/16 hole in the top of the center section.

Can I just extend my 3 channel plug wires and plug it into one of the wheel sensors? It is 2 wire on both the 3 and 4 channel rear. Im going to try it anyways probably....

The easiest thing to do is to install the rear and leave the abs/tcs alone, which will mean that none of it will work. You'll have that light staring at you on the dash, and you'll have old school non abs brakes. Bob
