Default LS1 traction control on LT1 rear HELP

Hello everyone,

I am putting LS1 backing plates and calipers on my LT1 rear axle. Everything is going great so far. I want to maintain my traction control, and my backing plates from the LS1 are traction control compatible. I installed everything then I look to see if I can put traction control sensor in and I'm running into a problem. I am not sure what I'm supposed to do here. has anyone done this? Does anyone know what to do? Thank you very much!!!!

Since I'm not familiar with the LT TC setup,what is the problem you're running into ?
LT TC axles are GM # 26063144, LS TC axles are GM # 26059972.

I have LT1 rear axle. I am upgrading the brakes from LT brakes to LS brakes. I have four Channel TCS currently. I have backing plates from an LS with four-channel TCS as well. I installed the backing plates but my actual LT1 axle has teeth on it for traction control and those teeth will butt up against the ls backing plate. Also the TCS sensor for the ls backing plate will not fit into the ls backing plate because the axle flange from my LT1 axle housing is in the way.
