Well i have finaly peaced together most of the parts i will be putting on my truck and i would like to get it all on at once. Ill be doing a 6 inch lift with 37 inch tires and an e-locker and i would like to re-gear to 4.56 gears to get back to stock. my question is i have heard that those gears will cause abs senser problems so ....#1 why does this happen and #2 how can i fix it . I would rilly like to re-gear so i dont stress anything out in the drive line. Any and all info appreciated thanks Aron

The Predator allows you to correct for tire size AND gear ratio change. The ABS works off the front speed sensors in the hubs, which are an input to the EBCM, and the VSS, which is an input to the PCM/TCM. The data must jive between these modules or it will set codes. I say go with the Pedator as it is the easiest, cheapest way to accomplish this, and you can add power in the process.
