ABS on MK 1 02 Octavia Laurin & Klemin 1.9TDI

Can anyone confirm what I need to buy to change the ABS ring on a front hub. The ring fitted has been damaged. Can I buy a replacement ring on its own or does the whole front hub require replacement? I've been receiving conflicting advice and there is a significant difference in price between the two options.
Thanks

Hi you will need to replace the complete hub on the front as the rotor for the ABS is attached to this so you need the hub and a new wheel bearing as you will damage the wheel bearing trying to change this part.

Hi
Thanks for that, much appreciated. Good point about the bearing! I'll order one at the same time.
