    Default AE101 4AGZE superstrut driveshafts

    I was looking into picking up a 4AGZE for my AE92 GTi. The donor car is a Levin AE101 with superstrut suspension and ABS. Would the driveshafts fit the hub or do I need non ABS driveshafts?

    does it come with the ABS controller?

    I would be inclined to look into making the AE92 ABS equipped if you have all the right gear

    I dont know if the ABS controller comes with it, I havent been down to have a look. I dont really want to get into something overly complicated though just looking for a straight swap.

    Thanks for the link I have come across that before but its all about brake conversions and does not mention driveshafts.

    Thanks for the advice. I have actually got a spare hub lying about so i will take that along with me just to double check.

    I'm no expert but i think you will need:
    ABS control unit
    Wheel speed sensors for each wheel
    Hydraulic motor thingo
    and I think there's a Valve or 2 that controls which wheel(s) will be receiving the action

    I'm not sure if it will work with the stock brake lines, but most brake lines today are fairly sturdy.

    I had an after market system on my old Landcruiser, it worked great when 4WDing but I broke it with my 35" tyres on the road

    I didn't hook it up so I don't know whats involved but a couple of net searches should give you some answers, and maybe someone on here.

    dont bother with retrofitting ABS to your AE92... you will fail in the explosion.
    ...... butt scratcher?!
