Hi Guys and girls, I am requiring your help trying to source a rear ABS ring for my 2001 gallant Vr4.
The ABS light has been flickering on and off for a few weeks and the ABS is also kicking in sometimes.
I have contacted my local Mitsubishi garage and they say I would require the whole outer CV joint......is this true???
I have looked over the net and came across ABS rings for an EVO....would these fit my VR4???
Thanks in Advance!!!!

Is it damaged ?

I have some outer cups with the ABS ring on..

Mitzy will only sell the complete driveshaft at around £500 a pop :speechles

If yours is damaged and you go for the outer cup, you will have to split the driveshaft to fit the outer cup..

Cheers

Yes the ABS ring is snapped/cracked causing an intermittent fault.

I have found a website that says that the Evo ABS ring will fit so I might give that a go before I spend £££'s..

I have just spoken to my local garage as my car was there for some accident repair a few months back and they are willing to repair it as it was that side that was damaged!!!......Great!!!
