Decided to replace rear wheel bearing on 2007 Jimny. Stripped it back and looking at old rear hub seal it looks different to new chunkier seal. Q. Will new one fit ok bearing in mind I will have to cut the old one off 1st so don't want to be stranded. Picture of old and new for comparison attached.

Sounds daft but is it the abs bearing you got?

ABS system and ABS bearing from the jimny shop. The oil seals are the same as the old ones fitted. Photo is not loading unfortunately but just shows the new bearing is slighty bigger than the old one. I take it that the procedure is the same as that shown on the various videos whic only show a none abs system?

From what I can remember you need to heat up the abs ring unless you have a new one to get it off and re use it it's pretty straight forward, grind the holding part off the tapered ring, and the rest pretty much falls off then press it all back on
