When building the 8.8 can someone shine some light on a few questions I have.?

Is it possible to retain the ABS on rear when you cut and add 9" ends?
Is there race brakes that work with the ABS?

What I am looking to do is build my 8.8 with 9" ends, braced and retain the OEM brake system. Is it possible. Any first hand experience would be helpful

I looked on the forum but did see the info I was looking for.

a few years ago currie told me that they build 8.8s with 9" ends which retain the abs for the s197, but not for the sn95s.

i think you will have many brake hardware options available

It appears Lethal makes a kit with moser axles that retain oem. So it looks like it is doable with moser axles. I will see if Strange has this also

You have an A6 what are your goals for the car? I don't think you would need to do a build like that until you forge the bottom ens of your motor

Lethal has a kit likr that. Theyre also very helpful if you give them a call and want to make changes. Like I prefered a true trac. Unfortunatly I wont be touching the rear end this summer. Gonna wait for the engine build/pump uogrades and a fee other things.
