3 Channel 12 Bolt into a 4 Channel Car

Going through the same issue right now.
I bought a Moser 12 bolt for my 1994 z28, it had no ABS so no reluctor ring in the pumpkin, even no hole for it.
Got out of the LT1 car, kept the rear.
Bought a 2002 T/A with 4 channel ABS w/TCS
I want to keep everything. I contacted Moser, they have to machine the axles for the ABS exciter rings which go on the ends. They charge 100 for the machining and 75 for new rings. I am going to have them do it all.
Also having the bearings un pressed before hand helps, I had LT1 brake hardware on it so it def needed to come off before hand.
Otherwise its pre basic bolt in. There was an issue with the E-brake in relation to having it bolt into the rear. I have LCA relocation brackets installed I was told by quite a few people that it has to be cut and re-welded.

the parking brake works if you use the right type parking brake cables. I switched my 96 to 2000 and vise versa and swapping the cables worked perfectly. one set is longer and with shorter tubes then the other.

I just don't know if the magnetic sensor work off of a standard voltage. If that voltage is the the same in both 3 and 4 channel you might be able to wire your existing sensors

Havent had a chance to post. No the ABS with out the exciter rings will not work. You need to have them on there. If you for go the rings its highly recommended to removed the ABS block and put a proportioning valve in there instead.
TCS is just a benefit of having the ABS in place, if there rings are not there you get neither.

Thats why I quoted you.
But sometimes the stock plates dont work... Well they didnt on mine.

Man I wish people would read the stickies.
You just need to put the reluctor rings on the axles. You can use the ones from your 10 bolt. If you install it without doing that, yes it is going to trip a dash light. If you install this without your reluctor rings, you will not have abs, you will not have traction control. Think about it. If you install a rear and plug in no connectors to it, what the heck does the car have to go by if a wheel is slipping or not?

I read the stickies! I need to get the moser axles machined down to accept the rings?? Also could i take the rings off of my stock 10 bolt axles and put them on the 12 bolt axles without maching??? Is the machining 100% necessary?? Thanks, Ryan
