Look on your right side strut tower. Do you see a box with a lot of plugs going into it? Then you have ABS. When it rains, hit the brake hard and see if the brakes stutter. Then it has ABS. When you start the car and move it a couple feet do you hear a low "guuur" for like 2 seconds? Then you have ABS.

Jim Wolf himself told me to get to 60 mph and slam on the brakes. If they don't lock up, you have ABS.:D

hehe.. kinda sounds like a Jeff Foxworthy bit: "If your car don't slide in the rain... you might have ABS":p

wouldn't the easiest way have been to turn your ignition to the "on" position and look for the "antilock" light on '91-'92 or the "ABS" light on 93's?:confused:
