Default rear end swap

Have a 97 with a buggered up abs rear end and a 94 non abs donor rig. Is there anything I need to do with abs besides just disconnecting it? Haha hoping it as simple as it looks just to swap it out.

If the you just disconnect it you will have ABS codes. The computer needs to see the rear axle and know that the ABS is functioning properly to turn the light off. You may be able to jumper the connector or put a resistor in to trick the computer into thinking the ABS is working properly. But if you are ok with an ABS light than yeah it should just be a straight swap.
