The Question pertains to the Changing of the Rear disc on a MK3 GTI/VR6 Rear Beam...

The New Discs don't appear to have the ABS Speed Rings installed on them?

Is there a ABS Specific Disc or does the Speed ring get removed from the old disk and pressed on to the new disc?

Gently lever it off and re install on the new one....
2010 T5 Transporter TDI  Tuned by Superior Tuning NZ
2003 Jetta Coupe soon to be R36TT
1991 Golf GTI 2.0 TSI swapped
1963 Type 34 Karmann Ghia, turbo 2.0
1990 Porsche 964 911 Carrera 4
1980 1303 Beetle vert, under restoration

Before you start greasing up bearings, make sure the speed sensor ring actually fits over the little hub on the disc.
I built up mine with new bearings and packed it all with grease, then when I went to put the ring on, somehow they wouldn't fit over the disc.... not sure if it was a bad batch or a different part. Either way I had to clean the stupid thing out and take it back to the shop to be replaced. Second batch fitted fine

Nice info 8)
The end is nigh, but the end of what is the question?
