the rear abs sensor and speed sensor are the same part-98 and up. It is on top of the rear differential.

Quick way to tell if you have the speed sensor on your transfer case tail shaft is to look.

If you see a place where a hole could be drilled, but nothing there the sensor is in the rear diff. Easy enough yes?

You could read it that way, or you could find your answer. It's up to you I guess.
