Does me 97 Jeep TJ have ABS?
 

I have a 97 Wrangler Sahara 4.0 with a d35c, 3.55 gears, and an open
differential in the rear. How can i tell if i have ABS? Ive never
felt it kick in ever in the winter, so im guessing i dont have it.
Other than feeling it while im driving, is there another way to see if
i have it? Plus im looking at the EZ locker so i may have to know if
i have abs or not.

You have the D35 so it's possible. Easy way to check is looking at the
lines... Follow where the hard brake line comes off the body and joins with
the flex line. ABS will have a wire going to the sending unit along side the
brake line. Non-abs will only have the brake line.

There is a tray positioned below the master cylinder and brake
booster, in essentially the same location as the battery, but on the
driver's side of the engine bay. If you see stuff sitting on this
tray, with lines going to it from the master cylinder, then you have
ABS. (This shelf, by the way, is referred to as the "ABS Shelf".) If
this shelf is empty, then you don't have ABS.

If you look in this picture:

You can see the ABS Shelf. It is the metal tray this person has
attached all the orange hoses and white guages to. And before you ask,
No, these hoses and gauges aren't found in a stock jeep; this person
did as many (including myself) have done; he used his empty ABS shelf
(since he doesn't have ABS on his TJ) to mount his on-board-air
manifolds, gauges, etc. I only included this picture to help you see
where the abs shelf is located; so you can just ignore the crap
mounted to it in this pic.
