   Hard to convert? Looks like I just need to swap the hubs over?

   most non abs backplates dont have the cut out in them to feed the sensor through and im sure you have to drill them to fit the securing bolt aswell

   sorry to hijack thread but just wondering ...
   
   what about the other way around? like putting a abs beam on and non abs model (for example a vts beam on a vtr)

   abs to non abs is fine. Nothing needs to be done.
   
   Non abs to abs is a fiddle but can be done. Drill a few holes and attach the sensor. Then get abs hubs. BUT
   It will be soo much cheaper just to get an abs beam
