    Good afternoon all. I am reinstalling everything in my car today after doing the subframe reinforcement. I have everything in the car except for the exhaust and the rear rims. Headers are on but that's all, drive shaft in. I wanted to start the car here and see if I would run into any issues. So after starting, idled out fine. Put it into gear. Spun the rear end no issues. Applied gas and it cut power. Traction control light going nuts. Ok? Maybe becuase it's on quickjacks and all 4 wheels are off the ground..... Turned traction control off. Applied the gas and abs light came on. Anyone experience similar issues? Yes I rechecked the connection of the abs in the rear and check for damage. None found

      I think I would expect some weird behavior and lights since the car sees that the rears are spinning while the front is not. The ABS and TCS will want to kick in.

          That is normal. I wanted to check if ABS was working so you put it in gear and apply throttle with the engine running while on jack stands. ABS will activate.

              Car computers don't know if it's on jackstands or your rear tires are lit up and you are about to spin into a tree. So as the other guys said, normal.
