wont matter if its ABS or NON ABS u just take off the ABS ring off the old shaft and put it on the non abs shaft :) splines/snouts are the same that go into the wheel baring housings on all models of FTOs, now as for into the tiptron box i would asume they would be the same shaft/splines are the same on the 4 and 5 speed tiptronic boxes as i found no reference to a difference between them

Nup, 4sp and 5sp tip are definitely different. Been burned on that one before. Storm Hawk should have one for you I believe. send him a PM.
