How can I tell if my 4runner have ABS?

Sorry for a newbie question but how can i tell if my 4runner have ABS?
I have a 92 v6 3.0 5 speed 4WD 4runner

when i turn my car on, i was looking for a ABS light but there isn't one so i'm guessing no ABS? is there any other way of telling without trying to lock them up?

thanks

Look on the top of the drop out third members. If there is a plug with some wires coming off it, then thats the ABS sensor. It should be about 1"-2" diameter.

find your VIN and go here www.toyodiy.com should be able to tell you what you have or don't have, I imagine.

I believe you just have rear ABS. If it's still working.

actually, its a great idea... if the wheels are gonna lock up, thats one thing, but if you dont have ABS, the ass end will slide right past the front causing a spin-out...

think before you post, elton...

Sometimes I wish I had ABS. like I think twice in the 5 years I've been driving on my own. Gotta learn how to threshold brake on roads completely covered in ice here. Don't just STOMP the pedal and hold it, pump them.

I accidentally ordered non abs diffs for my ABS rear end. Is there anything I can do to get the sensor unit into an non ABS 3rd?

Thought I should post here instead of a new thread. I did not see anyone trying to get it to work, just disable and remove threads.
