Spliced my abs wire, it was super corroded and even after cleaning with salt and vinegar I barely got the solder to flow. I got them stuck together and went and paid this guy 20 bucks to hook his scanner up. It was showing an erratic signal from the wheel sensor. Frugal me wants to cut more of the wire out and solder more, but I'm probably just gonna go get a new sensor and hope my wheel bearing isn't the problem.
I also hit up a dirt road on the way there to try to test the ABS, because I heard that can push the air out of the module.
My main concern now is getting the sensor to work and the module being bad.

Well I didn't see this yesterday, wish I would have. I bought the new speed sensor already, so I went ahead and put it on. The videos I watched only had one of these shims/gaskets, but I went ahead and put all 4 back on. The copper and brass ones were super thin.

Oh, and this is how the alignment shop had my cam bolta on the passenger side, that's probably the reason it pulls so bad. I just bought more stainless nuts and bolts to put in like the other side. Hopefully they get the alignment right after I take it back in there, I'm less than confident at this point.

Looks like they had to go past where the adjuster would allow.

@Rocket Man But they didn't on the other side, and this side was visibly cambered out. I pulled the bolts after I posted that pic and they were both stripped out, so I just went and paid 7.99 each for dorman bolts without the cams. Gonna borrow a torque wrench and try to get them back in, and probably replace the ones on the other side. I know I definitely don't recommend the SPC brand bolts, pretty sure they are trash. I was gonna buy the Moog ones, but the reviews on the AutoZone website weren't very good, and one guy said the AC Delco were the same as the Moog, and the dormant were like the OEM ones. Hopefully next week I will have this thing road worthy, I guess we will see...
