ABS axles on non-ABS car?
Hey all!
I have a 2002 NB, I'm swapping in a 3.6 differential. One of my axles is seized inside the hub, so I will be replacing it.
RockAuto has a decent deal on axles, but the inexpensive axles are the ABS ones. From what I understand, the upright casting is the same between ABS and non-ABS models, just that the area for the tone ring is not machined on ABS models. This would make ABS axles incompatible with non-ABS cars.
However, what if I could just knock off the tone ring? Would it work then?
