What the hell do the studs have to do with 4 channel ABS?

Make sure your axles are set up for the 1/2 studs (screw in or press in)

Me and Brent got them from the little speed shop by my house. in stock

Not sure, but I think he means he needs some studs that have a very flat head on them so it will miss hitting the reluctor ring. Alot of the screw in type have a big head on it and would hit the relutor ring which mine would have had I not deleted the TCS. I'm sure moser or Strange would have them as well as Summit.

If the heads aren't ground down they will hit the reluctor rings and on the strange rear they are screw in and the axle flanges are tapped for them allready

I was going to say my strange was set up already.

J&S has them in stock .... guess you would have to pull the axles out install the studs grind them down reinstall the axles.

Or take the TC off

Off subject a little but how fast can you go on 1/2inch studs before you need to upgrade to 5/8inch

Yep. If you have a strange with reluctor rings on the axles, your going to have to pull the rings to get the screw in studs out and new ones in, which also means pulling the bearings and seals and having new ones pressed on. Just went through that myself. Wish I chose to get the spool now, it would have been mucho cheaper to get no ABS/TCS with a spool.
