Default Solid rear question

So if I go forward with a GM 12 bolt or Ford 9" rear swap, is there any reasonable way of keeping ABS/ASR? Has anyone done this, or is it time to say goodbye to those features?
Thanks for sharing any info or experiences.

I would check with Currie Enterprises to see if they could incorporate that into a solid axle housing. Just order a bare housing with the ends and have a fabricator install it.

I have a 9" in my 1992-But removed the ABS/ASR.

Anything can be done if you put enough money behind it. F and B bodies had solid axles and asr/abs. You maybe to adapt parts to your application
