Hello everyone,,
I think no one has done this before but maybe, you never know lol
let me explain:
I have a 1997 VX-R Limited FZJ80 with the following specs:
- 4.5L gas engine
- 5-Speed Manual Transmission
- Center Diff. Lock
- No FF or RR diff. lockers
- No ABS
The donor car, a 1996 FZJ80 VX-R, specs:
- 4.5L gas engine
- 4-Speed Automatic Transmission
- I don't know if it has a Center Diff. Lock and I don't care
- Has an FF and RR diff. lockers
- ABS
What I have done is I swapped the ABS system and my diffs with a the locked diffs from the donor car
For the diffs, I had to swap the diffs themselves from tire to tire, wiring harness for the lockers and speed sensors, which I didn't have on mine, diffs ECU(Passenger Side kick panel), diff switch.
For the ABS, I swapped the actuator(under the hood), control relay(Next to actuator), and some brake lines. I still need to swap the ABS ECU and Deceleration Sensor to have the complete system swapped into my LC.
My question now is that, will the ABS system work on my LC?
Will the diffs lockers work without the ABS?
What other concerns I should have in order to have diff lockers and ABS both working.
My concern is that the FZJ80 with a manual transmission never came with ABS, or does it?, and this swap may upset the electronics on my LC.
