I dont see how the ABS axle would have done that but, I can get you an axle and bearing for $100. The hub Id have to do some diggin for.

Yea I couldnt find anything on the hub. I guess you might be dealer bound on that, unless you go used. But I can have the axle and hub by tomorrow for you if you need it.

I can't see how it tore up your hub, unless the abs teeth of that axle was rubbing on you hub this whole time. That's the only thing I can think of that would cause it. Bearings and hub should cost about $90-$100. The axle should be about $50 I'm thinking so I don't know who quoted you for $360. Look somewhere else for those parts.
