Hub: w/ABS to car without ABS.

Hi guys.
Questions totaling 100 bucks.

There is a hub for cars with ABS. I plan to buy this for my Hippo without ABS. I look at this because it is already in Russia and I do not have to pay 85-100 bucks for shipping.

1. How easy is the ABS wiring to be dismantled?
2. Will this wiring hinder further operation if I leave it in the same place?
3. If I remove it - what problems can await me?

I am sure that one of you held this hub in your hands and will be able to give a reasonable answer.
I only dealt with a hub without ABS, so I do not know how this plastic fittings and wires are attached.

Clip the wire to the shield or cut it.

Like Blue said, cut the wire lead off at the rubber block and install.

There will be no problems with doing this.

thanks friends
Unfortunately, I did not find a photo of the hub that I want to buy.
Not scary. This will come to me, I will take a photo and we will continue if I still have questions

No real need to cut the wires just use the clip to keep it up out of the way , if you don’t find a place to clip it then snip it.


Part #2 is the wire I’m speaking (typing) about.

Some have said that the ring pops off.

Shouldn't the ring pop off if you use it for the right application ?

I don’t recommend popping that plastic off. It’s not necessary

What plastic ?
Where the wire enters ?
If so, that's why just cut the cable flush to it.
Picky, picky.

You can remove the ring with the sensor. I have swapped mine in the past. If the wire is in the way, you can cut it, or just remove the sensor. It is pressed onto the hub, but slides out easily when rust is not present.
