6.2.1.4 Preferred Wheel Speed Sensor Mounting Block Location
The preferred location for the sensor mounting block is between the 2 to
3 o'clock or 9 to 10 o'clock positions on the spindle. This location offers
the highest resistance to wheel loading flexure and helps to maintain a
uniform sensor to exciter ring air gap during vehicle use.

6.2.2 Wheel Speed Sensor Clamping Sleeve Installation
The wheel speed sensor clamping sleeve (Bendix
®
part number 5012878) is
designed to firmly hold the wheel speed sensor in place while also allowing the
sensor to adjust in position as the wheel and hub rotate. Wheel bearing play and
heavily loaded axles will require sensors to self-adjust. Proper sensor installation
begins by fully inserting the spring clip into the sensor block, keeping the
retaining tabs toward the inside of the vehicle.
CAUTION:
• Any device used to hold the clamping sleeve in place must be properly
protected against corrosion.
• BCVS may not provide warranty for wheel speed sensors and/or clamping
sleeves exhibiting corrosion sustained from sensor mounting blocks or other
devices.
6.2.3 Wheel Speed Sensor Installation
Lubricant may be applied to the inner diameter of the mounting block and/or to
the sensor before installation. The sensor is then pushed into the clamping
sleeve until it stops against the teeth of the exciter ring. Lubrication is not
required for the installation of the sensor, but may be used.
