Ok, the best I can tell from searching is the following, please let me know if this is correct or not...

I looked underneath, and I have connectors on the t-case and rear axle.


The VSS is located in the tailshaft housing of the t-case?
The ABS sensor is located in the rear differential housing?


I am planning my SAS and will be replacing the transfer case and rear axle. I will need the VSS, but not the ABS.

yes that is correct.
 






Thanks for the confirmation. It should be easy to decide what rear axle to use... but not as easy to decide on a t-case. I would like to use an old NP205 because they are crazy strong and dependable and I already own 4 of them, but I'll have to research what it would take to put a VSS in one of them.
