Durango wheel hub
hey Guys,
I'm a chick (that does my own repairs) so please don't laugh I need to replace my 2001 Durango RT 5.9L
left front wheel hub. To get a new one I need to know if it's 2W or 4W ABS. I see it might be possible to tell
from the last 8 VIN char's. they are 1F528303. Is there another way to tell? There is a sensor in the hub, I broke it while removing the hub. The hub was so rusted it held the sensor in. Any help will be greatly appreciated !!

RE: Durango wheel hub
The dealer can help, and shouldn't even cost. Ask them to get you a build sheet, it might take a few minutes to print out, but this is what the factory uses for assembly. I got mine reprinted, ithas everything paint, body, engine, trans, axle, interior trim, radio options, colors, tires etc..... Based on what I am reading it sounds like Rear ABS, but dealer can tell for sure. If it helps as a reference my 03 4.7 SLT was the first year for standard rear disc brakes, but I am still on Rear ABS only. I was just checking some other references to double check. It sounds like a predominant pattern on those model years was rear only, but you may have got lucky. When the dealer prints the build sheet for you make a copy and keep one in the glove compartment the other in a safe area, for future use.
Good luck!!!!!!

Im not sure about the Vin recognition, ABS is an option and not a necessity for Vin #'s

8-Engine
9- Check digit for Vin verification
10-Model year
11-Assembly plant
12-17 - sequence number assigned by assembly plant.
