Tone ring.
I'd shop around, that price is high. I recall getting a set for my 2000 and CarQuest was only ~$5 difference for ABS vs. non. $55 ea. for ABS IIRC.
4W ABS will have an electrical connection on the front hubs. No wires, no 4W ABS.

those are advace's prices. .and there are abs sensors upfront, i know this for a fact cause one was yanked and thats why nmy rotors are warpped. but i dont know whether they did or not. but when i call for prices they give me those 2 options
a 4 wheel ABS rbv will have 2 wheel speed sensors up front. one for each wheel. and a single sensor on top of the differential.
the easiest way to check is to crawl under the front of the truck and look for a wiring harness. if its not there you only have REAR abs. all rbv's of this year have rear abs so don't bother checking

well i have abs up front so whats the difference between the rotors. could i use the 2wheel abs rotors?
While they would fit, you cant because the RWABS rotors dont have the tone ring pressed into them. It will throw the ABS for a loop...
You must use the 4WABS rotors.

Since when did the ABS rely on a special rotor or drum?
The rotors on my 2001 Ranger and my Wife's 2002 Sport Trac use a sensor in the unit bearing and the rotor just slides off the lugs to change. The rear uses the sensor in the differential to sense braking.

Yes, on the SLA 98+ suspension your exactly correct. We're talking about a 1996 TTB truck. The TTB uses a magnetic sensor that bolts behind the knuckle and through the spindle which reads off a tone ring that is pressed into the back of the rotor.
