Re: 12 bolt Options? I thought the ABS was the traction control?
Isn't that the button on the dash?
What I do know is that, I had the traction control off one day, jumped on it a little at a light, hit a damp area in the road and almost wrecked the car. I don't think that would have happened with the traction control on.
I leave it on most of the time now. Unless I go to the track. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

12 bolt Options? Soon I'll be needing a rear-end. What optional stuff will I need for a 12 bolt? I want to keep the ABS and anti-lock brakes.
Also, who has the best rear-ends?
Thanks.

Re: 12 bolt Options? Isn't ABS and anti-lock brakes the same thing? I went with a moser 12 bolt. Got the ABS provision, 33 spline axles and the eaton posi. Will be about 2300-2500 for this setup. If you have traction control you need to get that added as well - if you want traction control to work in the future of course. Some pople say the strange unit is of superior build and fails less, but I think its because there are a ton more moser units out there compared to strange. Its kinda of like the built 4l60e situation. FLP has a tranny, a few have failed but there are a lot of them out there - Ls1Speed has a tranny that has no failures, but has very few units out there. All up to the consumer, do a search, tons of info out there on this subject. Hope this helps
