[V8] Re: (no subject), abs sensor Part #

[kyle leatherwood]

part number is an Arvin Meritor (Rockwell, WABCO) of TDA/R955341.  My cost 
being an employee was $32.00, but you should be able to get it from any 
heavy duty truck dealership (Freightliner, Sterling, Western Star, etc.) for 
no more than about $40.00.  If it's more than that tell them they are 
ripping you off (their cost is only $23.65

Hope this is of some help to someone.

Kyle
