I was wondering about the TT and ABS/traction control as well. A few months ago I found an online store that stated that the TT was not compatible with ABS/traction control but it was the only place I found that did. I would just like to make sure as I do want a stronger differential the the open differential. I also would like to know how having a LSD would effect the way the car drives with traction control. The GT's have both traction control and a LSD so I would imagine there is some benefit to having both.

I have a concern regarding Anti-Lock brakes and the Detroit TrueTrac. Is your vehicle equipped with ABS? If so, does your ABS still work in the rear?
I've heard that the way ABS works on RWD is the circumference of the differential has a toothed rim. The truetrac axle is un-toothed & smooth surfaced. Its my understanding the toothed rim of the rear differential is how the ABS system senses when the rear wheels are locked up because the differential (and of course the toothed rim) cease to spin. W/O toothed rim on axle I'm afraid the ABS won't work.

Any thoughts on the true-trac rear axle & its impact on ABS equipped cars?
Isn't the exciter ring on the ring gear, so maybe checking to see if the ring gear is ABS compatible. There should be no prob with changing out the LSD, and keeping the stock ring gear, or putting in a compatible one.
As far as I know I have yet to see any manufacturer place the axle speed sensor on the carrier.

It was $1200 for everything, parts and labor. What tranny do you have?

Well I like the 3.73s. I guess a lot of people with autos are getting 4.10s, GT or V6. I was worried about the revs at highway speeds. I think the 3.73s are a good compromise between performance and drivability.
