Default questions about 4 channel rearends

ok so i have a 4 channel rear and i am going to be getting a strange 12-bolt soon i think, but i had a few questions first. i need to keep the car running because it is my daily driver and i cannot have any downtime. how do i go about getting a bolt in strange 12-bolt. is it possible? i cannot afford to take out the axels, the backing plates, and the reluctor rungs. i can purchase new backing plates, but what about the reluctor rings? is the billingsley racing strange 12-bolt a complete bolt in, if i buy the new backing plates? also what exactly are the reluctor rings and where are they located? im trying to get this sloved asap so i can buy the rear this week and hopefuly get it soon!!

Reluctor rings go on the axles. Billingsly should be able to set you up with a complete rear, including reluctor rings and backing plates. You will still need to swap over your brake lines, calipers, parking brake hardware, abs sensors, and discs. However you should be able to do all of that without opening the brake system.

Good luck $$
