Hmm, plug and play would be ideal, got anymore info on that?

Well I got under the car and there is no plug/sensor in the housing like on my old one. I am now lost for trying to make it work.

The sensor is at the hubs behind the rotors. Did the rear you got come with the sensors?

I dont think it has any sensors. I thought it had one up top but evidently that was my old one.

I think it was out of a 1996 LT1, but I'll have to talk to Cantonracer to verify it. Darkhorse has some LS1 rear brakes I might be able to swap with, perhaps thats the way to go?

Get the rear dirt cheap and sell it for a competitive price?? A little extra cash never hurt. Maybe even use it to buy the correct rear.

My $0.02

Re: doing a rear end swap... 3channel/4channel/tc questions

So I know for sure my old rear had a plug in the stop for ABS. I believe this was 3 channel. The rear I have now, has no such plug and I have access to LS1 brakes, backing plates, and axles. Can I make this work with just those or do I need a whole new ABS unit, parts, etc?

I ask because without ABS I am starting to eat up front pads real quick and it seems the rears arent even braking. The car overall slows like a 100 ton freight train.

Nice times for your car, I just noticed them. I wish I had traction last season so I could see 12's. Thanks to my Nitto's I hope to be there in the spring.
