So during a recent CV shaft change out, I managed to break the sensor ring that sets behing the hub assembly. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could buy just the sensor ring?

 

AC Delco part number 8686074.

Available from RockAuto for $15.42.

i have seen that part on rockauto, however without a picture i am leary whether or not is is the sensor that i need.

 

Huston we have a problem!

It seems that there is an error in the parts listing at RockAuto which tripped me up and has caused confusion for other folks too. The part number listed is actually the VSS sensor and not the wheel speed sensor for the front hubs.

I'm sorry to say that the part WILL NOT work and I have to apologize for passing along information I believed to be correct at the time.

At this point you have to replace the entire hub assembly as the sensor and reluctor ring are only available as part of a complete hub unit.

 

The ABS sensor is built into the hub assembly, sorry to say, you will have to replace the entire wheel bearing/hub assembly, there is no getting around it. Look for Timken units on Amazon or Ebay, they sell the OEM unit, same as the dealer, just in the Timken box and I have seen them around $100.
