Bought a 12 bolt from another member here and will I was working on getting the torque arm bolted up I realized the the stock bolts werent going to work Anybody know what size the bolts and the threading it has so I can go pick it up at a local story or is there somewhere special I can order them from?

Also I had a sensor on the top of the old 10 bolt housing but on the new one there isnt a spot to put it in at? What does this control and is it needed or can it just stay off?

Might ask the gentlemen you bought it from what he did for bolts. As far as the sensor your vehicle set up with 3ch or 4ch?

My car is a 3ch and I bought a 4 without thinking about it so I found the thread to convert a 4 to a 3 so looks like the car will be down for alot longer before I can get all this done. Alteast I'll have time to get the correct bolts I need

Make sure the bolts are clean and use loc-tite!

You should need 1/2" x 13 grade 8 bolts, 1 1/4" or 1 1/2" long, flat washers and lock washers. Use loc-tite on the bolts after cleaning the bolt threads of any oils.

Since your old rear had the sensor on the housing, that means you have the three channel ABS on the car without traction control. Your Moser rear was either ordered without any three or four channel, or it is a four channel. Are there reluctor wheels on the axles? In any case you won't be able to hook it up so you'll have to just do without your ABS. Your brakes will still work but you'll be able to lock them up if you slam on the brakes. You'll have the light on the dash glaring at you, which cannot be tuned out. You can remove the bulb though. Bob
