ABS/TCS and ebrake questions
A little background on the rear:
The rear is a Strange 12 Bolt with 33 spline axles.
It doesn't have ABS or TCS and the rear is missing the pieces for the ebrake. It originally had a spool, but a Tru Trac is going in right now.
I want the ABS, TCS and ebrake to work. The car drives fine without them, but I dont want any problems if I let someone borrow the car or something (forget to leave it in gear and it roll away.lol).
Since the car is a 4ch car, I need to get the backing plates and add them to the axles, right? Where do i get those from?
And where can I get the pieces for the ebrake? The shop said its missing two small pieces for the ebrake cable to connect to or something?
Is there anything else I need to do for the ABS/TCS besides the backing plates being pressed on the axles?
I read the stickies about converting a 4ch to 3ch and 3ch to 4ch...but it mainly says swap the axles or add the sensor. But neither applies to me since I dont have a 3ch car, and I dont have axles to just swap - i need to find each individual piece.
Thanks!

I believe you need the exciter rings, the harness for the abs, and i am not really else sure what you need. I am sure you could be the stuff from a sponser on here to make your car a 4 channel rearend. Or you could buy my exciter rings that i have, and backing plates that i have for a 4 channel rearend. I think that might work, if it does let me know we can work something out.

Exciter rings and sensors.
Wiring Harness for ABS and TCS.
Car that originally had ABS and TCS.
Backing plates.
E Brake hardware for inside the rotor.
E Brake cables up to the handle.
I think this is it.

Wiring Harness for ABS and TCS. - A harness that is on the rear?
Car that originally had ABS and TCS. - Got it.
Backing plates. - Don't have.
E Brake hardware for inside the rotor. - Dont have
E Brake cables up to the handle. - Got it
For the things i dont have, I can just pull them off a donor rear? How does the harness hook up? Is it just a harness that goes from the sensors on the exciter rings to the harness that goes to the BCM?

There is a harness that goes from the sensor on each end and connects to the block that holds all of the fuel pump connections. It would be on the drivers side rear seat back.
