Abstract
A unitary hub and exciter ring for a motor vehicle equipped with an anti-lock braking system (ABS). The exciter ring is unitarily formed in the hub by machining grooves into the exterior surface of the hub and creating spaced teeth about the circumference of the hub. To ensure roundness and concentricity in the hub, and to ensure close tolerances in spacing between the ABS sensor and the teeth, machining is gaged off of bearing cups mounted within the internal bore of the hub.
