Is this the passenger side or driver side? I have one for the drivers side still in the box with all the sensors from the dealership. Pep crap installed it and it didn't need it on there so I put the old one back on and went to take it back and they never would take it back. It has about 5 miles on it from the store to my house...

Not exactly sure what you mean here, but....yeah, there is NO getting the sensor off to re-use on the new hub.

As far as install goes, it's not that bad getting the new one in.

Just need:

There are far cheaper (cost wise) hub assemblies out there. Easily $100 less. Replacing the ABS sensor is optional but they are very easy to break while taking the hub off.

Save yourself time and pull entire spindle out of truck and take it to a workbench to work on it. And to shane I am saying get abs sensor replace it and don't bother fucking with old one cause your destined to bust it trying.

Quick question on this, I know that the call for different parts for driver and passenger. Does this mean that they are unidirectional bearings? I recently needed to replace my passenger and had an unused driver one sitting around, so I used it to get me by for now.
