Can we see pictures of the RR limo?! I would think the that you need to get a custom system that separates the ABS system from the TCS system. Thats just me though.

solutions start with codes. no codes no permenent solution. Since you don't understand the systems at all its obvious you are upset because no one will attempt anything. You can try the rover independants and instead of bringing it to the shop they can make a separate trip with the equipment to at least read your codes. Reading the codes is the first solution. Even if the conversion was done correctly the vehicle steering wheel sensor could be out or something else could be the problem. Without having any diagnosis you are doing nothing but tripping over your own feet. Trust me, no technician or diyer can fix your car without codes. abs and etc are integrated together as is all other parts of the vehicle. You have a big problem that will require lots of money or perhaps very little but without getting diagnosed first then you are just screwing yourself. Diagnosis and codes first and then the community can help. Trust without them you wont be getting very far. Don't believe just read thru these and other pages all the guys will tell you the same thing. diagnose first with codes and then you get your answer.

I think you hit the nail on the head.. the SAs needs to be different. Being that
the rear wheels turn at a slower rate when turning on a stretch you would need to modify the sas input while turning. Something that would input a lesser steering angle..
There is nothing I could ever dream up for this issue, nor would I want to..
...Just spewing B/S

You will find pics here: http://www.royaluxury.com/fleet/rang...limousine.html

Thanks for everyone's feedback. I figured someone must have a trick by now. There are always work-arounds on most cars. So its back to the drawing board.

I wonder if you could rig something like a pair of these:
TruSpeed™ Speed Sensor Recalibrator · Superlift · www.superlift.com

in line with the wheel sensors in the rear. It says they have "two settings" so I wonder if you can set one setting for "no change" or "stock size tires" and then rig a relay the flips to the adjusted setting when you detect a signal from the steering sensor that you are turning.

Just thinking out loud... might be a silly idea.
