Default Need help to confirm 4 wheel ABS

I have 2005 Ram 1500, these pics are of the left front wheel. Taken from the front toward the back.

I'm 99.9% sure the black wire is the one I'm looking for to confirm I have 4 wheel ABS, but just wanted more learned opinions of the members here.

Thanks

Yes. That's the wire to the ABS sensor.

Thanks, going to replace the bearing assembly and want to get the right one.

Had to replace the right side one a little over a year ago. I can't remember which they said, because when they checked it, they said it was one type, called the parts house, didn't have that one (did the other) but could order it. Came back next day, they had they one that been ordered, but it was the wrong one, it was actually the other. So by the time all that was done I didn't remember which was which.

That job was nearly $350, ($255 assembly, rest labor) Going to do this one myself with the help of a friend. Have found the assembly online (via another thread on here) for just under $100 and labor just going to cost me future tech support...lol Much better deal this time I think.

On a side note, as I'm sure several on here know there was a recall on 2006 Ram 1500 for the Wheel bearings http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/pr...0&summary=true Can't help but to wonder if a few of these bearings are in some 2005 models. I am keeping my receipts, but figure if there was going to extend the recall, would have been done by now.
