i got a new pass axle and it didnt come with a new snap ring for trans, can i reuse my old one or should i run to the parts store. Also, i dont see an abs ring on the axle, whats up with that. HELP should i send it back, what can i do.
 


not sure what an "abs ring" is, but the snap ring stays inside of the transmission..... there is not supposed to be one on the shaft
 
WTF are you guys telling him?

The part of the axle that goes into the trans aka diff housing should have a compression ring on it that does keep the axle in the diff. It's not quite a snap ring, but it does compress etc, you should see the groove and it should have come on the axle.

As for the ABS ring, the ABS sensors on our cars are build into the wheel bearing. Therefore there is nothing on the axle.
 
well whatever kind of ring it is, it stays in the transmission when the shaft is pulled out. when i pulled my shaft out there was no ring on it, and no ring on the new shaft.
