ABS Controller location????
Can anyone tell me where the ABS controller(module) is located on a 1997 250 Light Duty 2wd. It is the newer body style. Any help would be appreciated.

Depends on whether you have 2 or 4 wheel ABS.

No I dont know, but on my Wife's Chrysler it was right in front of the Brake master cylinder/power cylinder. Ford's probably similar.

If anyone has the abs module for this truck, I would be willing to take it off your hands.

My Haynes manual states that the RABS module is located in the center of the dash.

Hope this helps!

If what I think your talking about its bolted down on the top of the differential in the rear end almost directly above where the driveshaft mounts to the flange.
