Front Hubs Series 2 & 3

Unread post by Fintan »

Hi everyone.

In my endeavours to correct an ABS problem I have discovered that my Series 3 thema has two
different CV joints with different size external shafts & splines. It appears that somewhere in the cars history one entire hub & ancillaries was replaced with that of Series 2 car. Everything works fine except
the ABS ring is different and therefore creates an imbalance which shuts off the ABS approximately
1 mile into a journey. The Question is how much of the Hub assembly is interchangeable between series 2 and series 3 cars, & how much do i need to replace to correct the annomaly?

Problem Solved,
Even though the series 2 & 3 CV joints are different they are the same diameter where the ABS
ring is attached. The Ring is interchangable and once changed the imbalance no longer exists
and the ABS light stays off.
