Difference Between Wheel Bearings Suitable For Abs And Those Only Suit

[warwickbrad]

Morning all,

I've purchased a replacement front wheel bearing for my Corolla T-Sport and before having it fitted, I'm just double checking that it will be suitable. It says suitable for Corolla T-Sport and I imagine all T-Sports if not all Corolla's have ABS fitted as standard from 01 onwards, but does anybody know if there is any physical difference between the 2 I can check for before putting it on, or will both ABS and non-ABS wheel bearings look-a-like and the only way of telling is when the ABS light doesn't turn off...!! I'm intrigued to know if any T-Sport bearings can be sold which aren't suitable for ABS...

Thanks in advance.

Why would there be any difference? A wheel bearing is a wheel bearing no? When I changed bearings on my car (which has ABS unfortunately) I used a Firstline kit which included a NSK bearing. About £30 can't go wrong!

Recently replaced my wheel bearing... if you ordered the part using your reg number you'll be fine.

Unsure if there's any difference in the actual wheel bearings abs vs non abs tho

some wheel bearings have a magnetic side for the abs senosor to pick up a signal
