Thought you were changing the wheel bearings, the abs sensors fit through a hole in the cv dust shield. If they are not loose you will have to destroy them to get the hub off.. I cut a slot in the dust cover do that if I had to remove them again then the sensors can stay in place

Was it just luck then that I got the CV's so I have to pull them off then?

Trying to think , to get the bearing carrier off you have to pull it from the c.f. joint and the carrier has the dust cover which the sensor protrudes thorough a hole. If the sensor is siezed then it has to be destroyed to get the carrier off. Get new sensors and the retaining sleeves elongating the hole in the dust cover allows you to fit/remove the carrier without disturbing the abs sensor

Could you not slot the dust cover with a dremmel to get it off without removing the abs sensors?
 
Today I finished putting my engine back together. All's fine except for a water drip from the heater pipe that fits In the front of the block.Bastard size o ring on the pipe so new one ordered, £4 +vat robbing bastard..
 
Went out this morning with the intention of stripping the heater pipe off the front of the engine.Found that the new o ring I used (not the v expensive one from the dealers) had been nipped, right ID but too thick. Think it should be 2mm not 2.5.I will measure the new one when I pick it up Monday.Felt happier after finding the reason for the leak so I took the cam cover off to torque the head the last 90 degrees, while I was at it I changed the cam and followers.:)
 
Dopey, my ABS sensors came out fine when I did my CV boots. They should be sat in grease so shouldn't seize. I did a How To on changing the CV boots in the Technical Section although the photos vanished when the site changed.
