Lightbulb Newbie ? on 9"..Please help

I drive a 99 M6 with abs but no traction control so that would make it a
3 channel, right? So my question is there any way that I can get a 9" with abs custom fabricated or would I have to that on my own. Meaning would I have to convert to a four channel by installing traction control so there for I can get a 9" with abs..Sorry for the confusion but my 10bolt busted and I need this info before I order. Would love to get the 9" as almost everyone recommends it but I guess I'll have to settle for a 12bolt.

No one makes a 3 channel ABS 9 inch, swapping all the parts to make it 4 channel would be kinda expensive and a pain (4 channel cars have TCS and also run two seperate brake lines to the rear, also the whole ABS unit is different). I have heard rumors that someone on cz28.com made a 4 channel axle sensor/reluctor work with a 3 channel system but I havent read anything about it myself.

If you must have ABS then a 12 bolt is your only bolt-in option.
