dubtajeep,
Do you have ABS?

Anyone else, did they make 8.25s with ABS?

My understanding of ABS brakes is:

If it has ABS, it's a Dana 35.
but...
all Dana 35s don't have ABS. It was optional.

Chrysler 8.25s did not have ABS, at least not on XJs.

So the question remains - dubtajeep,
Do you have ABS?
