Bugger, just threw away an ABS sensor (attached to a front hub) last weekend. Law of bloody sod.

Might have another sensor if you need Entwood...

If you have one I'll willing purchase it ... unprotected its bound to fail .. even if it works now !!! 

Looks like its changeable from the rear without taking the hub apart .. again .. :)
PM me your address, I'll get it in post over weekend. Free.
Scrub that, I damaged it whilst removing  :-[

Seems (unless mine was particularly seized) that drifting the old one out isn't going to work  :-[


Not to worry .. wanted ad going up shortly ... and a PM to AndyC for a price .. :) if its cheap enough I'll go for a new one .. :)

Just been to swidnod and back - returning the 400 Nm torque wrench £12 + VAT for 1/2 a day .. not bad IMHO - horrible "drone" has gone, no play in steering :) But we now have TC + ABS lights on ... so I guess I did a good job in mullering the sensor.. :)

Glad you got it all done... Shame about the sensor though. I think they may be the same front/rear :-/ If they are, a 2nd hand rear in better condition may be easier to come by :-?

Whatever it is... I didn't do it

So who was it implied removing the abs sensor was an easy job?  ;D :P

I had a new baring that fell apart like that out of the box. Fitted it anyway.  :-/

Perhaps with hindsight  :y :y  .. but it's still nice to get the job done myself.

OK .. I broke the ABS sensor by careless use of a percussion instrument..... still might have done the same using your selection of weapons.... :)

Do you seriously need a reamer that size? Hand or machine? I'm not in work till next Tues, but I'll have a look round to see what's about.  :y
