2003 Chevrolet Tahoe Stabilitrak/Traction Control Question

[Kenstang]

This may sound like a ridiculous question, but I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to add the stability control to a model that did not originally come with it.

For example, I just recently acquired a 2WD 5.3L, but I was hoping that it was a possibility to add the Traction Control Module and other necessary components in lieu of having the 4WD equipped model.

If anyone can shed some light on the possibility it would be greatly appreciated!

Would love to know myself!

I have this on my Escalade and end up turning it off sometimes.

Do you want it so that it makes your tires spin less on ice? Does it do something else I'm not aware of? (Like computer controlled braking to simulated a locker as on an FJ)

Can be done. easily nope. Ben from btdieselworks.com has successfully added It to his duramax. Not sure of the exact details just that he did do it. Even displays on the dic when activated.

It would require a new EBCM (the ABS block on frame rail), the ABS Precharge motor, new master cylinder, all the correct brake lines (two into the block, 4 out to each wheel), the stablitrak module in the rear quarter panel, and all the supported wiring. Once all that is done, you have to find a dealer or someone with a Tech 2 that is willing to sort out all of the programming/flashing between the EBCM, Stabilitrak module, and I assume BCM.

What are you trying to achieve? Do you simply want a vehicle that will be less susceptible to getting stuck in certain weather/terrain conditions or do you actually want a stability control system?
