IS200 ABS sensors
Evening chaps, so I've got a duff right rear sensor and I've heard it mentioned a few times now so I'm just wondering if anyone here successfully used the IS200 ABS sensors on their MR2? How was the fit? How much modification was needed?
Re: IS200 ABS sensors
IIRC it's the front ones that fit, not the back ones? Not 100% sure.
Re: IS200 ABS sensors
Kirk, if you decide to go ahead and try this, would you take a few photos of the original and the IS200 fitted.
Re: IS200 ABS sensors
In that case then I shall invest in a fully functioning used one to test the theory on my bad sensor. I'll report my findings
Re: IS200 ABS sensors
Kirk would you measure the length and diameter of the original sensor i.e. the part that slots inside the hub.
Re: IS200 ABS sensors
I can do that. Won't be for a few weeks yet like.
Re: IS200 ABS sensors
Kirk, I have been reading conflicting reports about people extending their ABS sensor cables with success (off-roading jeeps mainly).
I was thinking that if you do get a IS200 sensor and it is the correct size for the rear hub, then you may want to extend it. Test it first if you do go down that route.
I think the MR2 SW20 sensors are so expensive is because of the extra hardware used to bolt it on. I suppose they may not have been produced for any other vehicle , which increased cost. Who knows?
