knuckle/ABS question
Ok guys ('n gals),
Finally decided that my front end shudder must be the tiny bit of play in the driver's side ***** joints. Gonna do 'em all at the same time though. The question I have is this. Is there a major difference between the steering knuckles on a 92 and a 93? I only ask because the 93 has four-wheel ABS and GS did not. However, I had replaced all four balljoints on Greystreak about six months before the fire. I figure I've got four good ones, and I could save some time and cost if I just swapped the knuckles (balljoints and all) from one truck to the other. So, before I go tearing either one apart, how much additional or different stuff do I have to deal with if I want to do it this way? I know. I can look for myself but its gettin' chilly and the less time I have to spend "studying" the project as opposed to just DOING it, makes me happier.

Hi greystreak. You answer so many posts around here, that I just couldn't leave your own question just sit there at 0 replies!
My '94 has a hole and attachment in each spindle to mount the ABS pickup. Also a means of fastening the ABS cable to the spindle so it behaves when turning.
Keep us posted on the front end shudder resolution.
