Did you fit the correct bearings, and fit them the correct way round? Also did you damage the very delicate magnetic flux rings on the bearings?
A press is the only safe way to fit bearings, and then they need pressing in with the correct spacers to avoid damage. I changed 2 last weekend, which takes about 15 minutes per side, with the correct pressing procedure.
 
As above. What caused the damage to the first bearing fit? For example or impact in the wrong place will damage the bearing, abs magnets or both.

15 mins when the hub is off the car John !! :)
 
By the way, a defective abs sensor or magnet would not cause a wheel to lock up !!! Serious problem.to be sorted there.
