Junkyard Fixed Top

Spotted this EB fixed top on a van at the LKQ in Anaheim. People have been looking for these in the past so thought someone might be interested in going and grabbing it. I think the yard would charge somewhere between $100-$150 for it. No idea how hard they are to take off.

I'm not buying at the moment, but I'd just be curious to see how much $$$ LKQ asks for that rear FF.

Note of caution:
Be careful when shopping for a rear FF --- you also need to be aware of what style rear ABS sensor setup your current axle has if you're upgrading.

From what I understand:
Even though they will all have rear disc brakes after '99 as carringb noted, there's a significant difference in the ABS/speed sensor setup on different years.

Axles from '99 through around '04 (or so?) use a single rear ABS/speed sensor (mounted to the differential), but axles newer than that use a two-sensor setup (one at each outboard end of the axle.)

Ya might have some ABS/speedo compatibility (and trouble code) issues if you mate up a different-sensor-layout-axle to your rig.
