i pick up a 31 splined Traction lock for my 93 ford 4x4 extended cab for the 8.8 in the rear for a great price off ebay. Its in great shape low mile, but as i inspected it i notice it has no pick up ring for the ABS speed sensor. Can i just buy the ring?? are all traction locks set up for the ring?? Or does it go back on ebay?? need a little help.

 

Why can't you reuse your old one?

 

If I remember right, some carriers are drilled for the ABS ring and some are not. The ones that are not are in the minority, as they were only made for a couple years prior to 1987 when ABS became standard.

If you do have the wrong carrier, I know where you can sell it and get your money back.

 

I think those tone rings are pressed on and off the differentials. Try poking around online and see if you can find any pictures that you can compare yours to.

 

Because he bought a new carrier in order to get the limited slip.
