Default 8.8 with abs and tcs

is there any way to do the 8.8 swap and still retain abs and traction control? what needs to be done to do so?

also is it easier to use the 10 bolt tubes o the 8.8 tubes? i have a 8.8 with 35 spline spool but haven't set anything else up yet. going to be installing the rear in the car this weekend.

The ABS/TCS on the 10-bolt relies on two things:

1. A reluctor ring at each wheel (pressed on each axle) for the signal
2. Sensors installed at each of those rings to pick up the signal

The sensors are attached to the backing plates, so you need to figure out how to get them in the right position on the new rear as well as the reluctor rings on the axles in the proper locations. Probably easier said than done, but not impossible.
