Have a buddy that did it. He installed a reluctor ring on this driveshaft yoke and fabbed up a bracket off his trans to mount his ABS sensor like it would have been in the pumpkin. He had a 3 channel system though. If you have a 4 channel then it may be even easier if you can mount the speed sensors and use your old axles. If you go with new axles then you'd have to make sure they can accept the reluctor rings off your old ones.

What 8.8 are you using? The explorer 8.8 already has a ABS sensor in it. I always wondered if it could be made to work through programming.
