WHEEL SPEED SENSOR RELOCATION

Swapping out the stock rear end for a Currie full floater in my pre-runner.

Looking for a wheel speed sensor relocation kit (reluctor ring with pick up or something of that nature) to run either off the tail shaft of the T case or pick up from actual T case. The 3rd Gens do not have a pick up in the T case like how the gen2s have a boss you can drill and tap to locate a pick up sensor. There is a kit available that has a reluctor ring and pick up that bolts to the yoke of the diff, but we are trying not to go that route since this is a desert truck and will most likely get ripped off in that location.

Or... will a gen2 and gen3 T-case swap with each other? If they do, we can drill and tap the 2nd gen T-case for pick up and swap them. TIA!!!

The issue is, the system is looking for wheel speed. It's programed for it. If the system sees the speed before the gears, that is gonna mess things up. Your best bet it to have something made to compensate for the gear ratio. This might have to be a custom part for you to build.

 

The stock speed sensor is before the gears anyway?

 

What if you tie it to the front wheels just to give it the same signal? You'd loose or potentially really screw up if ABS tries to kick in but that may be one way to give the signal. I have never tried this or seen it done but one way to test wheel speed sensors/wiring is to jumper the sides.

That's quite the terminator-like setup you got there...

 

The 3rd gen takes the speed signal off the ABS.

I also believe the 2nd gen for a good number of it's production years does as well.

 

Oh come on, you can fit a third caliper in there, man. I believe in you.

 

For reference, my ABS has been gone ever since I installed a long travel race Kit up front. No issues aside from Christmas tree lights on the dash but the concern now is not being able to engage into four-wheel drive when swapping out the stock rear end.
