difference between 80x and 105x hub rebuilds

Hi all

a guy from work wants me to do a hub rebuild and cv repair for him. I'm familiar with 75x and 80x part time front end rebuilds and i want to know if there is anything vastly different when doing a 105x hub rebuild.

His has ABS and full time front end.

So how hard is it to avoid doing damage to the ABS? what is different with pulling down the non manual hubs?

Also, he may have done a CV as it is clicking, where is the best place to source another and any ideas on price for second hand vs new?

Exactly thesame but you remove the abs sensor before undoing anything....or u break it.

Thanks mate.

does that just unbolt/unscrew/pull out of the knuckle before you pull anything apart?

Not all 105 series have ABS.

Thats right, and if yours doesnt have ABS, the c/v is a std 80 series short c/v and the axle is thesame aswell...to remove the ABS sensor, one 12mm bolt is all that holds it in and an oring keeps dirt out.
All constant 105's have a unique c/v spline on the drive plate end too.

Thanks guys. it definately has ABS.

So i just have to make sure that if i get a CV from a wreckers it HAS to have come from a 105 series full time
