Swapping D44 into ABS jeep
What would be the complications of swapping a non ABS D44 into an ABS jeep? Would the system still work with the rear sensors disconnected? Thanks |
Re: Swapping D44 into ABS jeep
No, the system would not work.
Well, the BRAKE system would work fine, but the anti-lock feature would not work. To retain the ABS, you would need to modify the axles so that you could put a tone ring back in. Depending upon where you live, this -- putting the ABS system back together -- is a complete waste of time and money. The D44 is a good upgrade, but I'm not convinced that ABS is a necessary system. If you lost the ABS, your life would not change very much. Be sure you gear the D44 to match your D30 on the front axle.

If the ABS light is lit on the instrument cluster, then you might have to pull a fuse or relay, but there is nothing that needs to be done to the plumbing. You could go Top Shelf and remove the ABS valve body and whatever compressor thingy might be there, but the only problem with leaving the stuff in place is hauling around the weight. They make D44s that can accomodate the ABS system ... But, your original question was, what would be the complications? There would be no complications that arise from the brake system. The brakes themselves -- size, shape, that sort of thing -- might be a complication of sorts, but once you manage to get the brake pipe to connect to the brake hoses on the axle, the rest of the stuff will already be in place. The ABS works by sensors detecting that a tire has stopped rolling, and brake pressure to that tire is released so it can roll again. If there is no sensor, then the tire will simply stop rolling if the brakes are applied heavily. No big deal. The ABS system might look for the sensors, and when they are not found it may turn the light on to warn you that ABS is not working. The complication is finding the fuse or relay that turns the light off. |

Re: Swapping D44 into ABS jeep
True, but if you intentionally disabled the ABS, and then caused serious
damage by smashing into something else, your insurance company would have grounds to disallow any and all claims made by or against you. ABS theoretically makes the vehicle safer, you see. Installing a Dana 44 without ABS is theoretically disabling the safety features that the vehicle was sold with. I am waiting for them to get legislation passed, that would disallow claims made by or against those bozos who refuse to wear seat belts. Cheers, Earle "L.W.
