Default 2001 5.9 4x4 axle shaft

Does anybody know if an axle shaft with an abs tone ring on it will fit the same as an axle shaft that does not?

It most likely will not, plus your abs light will come on and you may not have abs as a result.

We will soon find out. My truck only has rear abs. I think the difference between the front having abs or not is the knuckle having a mold in it for an abs sensor to sit above the tone ring. I went a head and ordered the yoke end of the axle. 90$. The only one I could find had the tone ring on it. The whole shaft was $500.

That would make sense. How I understand it at first was you had front abs.
