Default Installed 3.73/eaton.... now ABS lite comes on sometimes?

99 Tahoe,
2WD,
Went from G80/3.08's to
3.73 + Eaton posi.

Sometimes ABS lite comes on. Factory G80 does not have an ABS reluctor wheel so that's not it.

Gears are not calibrated yet, need to buy HPP3.

that is probably the problem. I did the same swap and had the same thing happen. The lights would reset when the key was off but would back come on while driving. once I corrected the gear and tire size with my predaor it resolved the problem. It freaked me out also when it happened. I understand why but repeating it is a different story.

Dave, I'll take it if it's not locked.

I don't think they make a diablo for an older HOE.

New gears and Eaton kick ***.

It's not locked.I programmed back to stock when I traded the hoe on the SS.If it was locked I would pitch it,credibility is too important to me.Please send me your info via P.M.I don't have a pay-pal account M/O or cashiers check will work.Hope you don't mind.Will check back this evening.

They don't. I was just speaking from my experience. Unless the proflash has one for your truck it looks like hypertech is what you need.

Yea they do!
When I went to pick up my truck at the differential shop, I programmed it with my HPP3 before I left the lot. No ABS light or anything. I don't know if that has anything to do with it because the only thing I think the HPP3 does is correct the speedo, but I may be wrong.
Have fun!
