If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

Yes it will fit, bur the ABS light will be on all the time, the ABS won't work, in the UK you won't get an MOT, and you will probably lock up a wheel too easily in the wet*.
Apart from that, it is fine :whistle:
*usually, ABS vehicles put more braking effort to the front, knowing that the abs will kick in and save the day. The non-abs jimny has a rear brake regulator valve linked to the suspension to stop the rears locking when there is no weight in the back. This won't be needed with ABS.
You can likely press the old ABS ring off and reuse it if you are careful, the cog sticks well out for tool purchase, you will need to make something to spread the load over the teeth though.
