Only the steering knuckle and of course the hub/bearing in the '86 would have the ABS wheel BUT the '86 hub/bearing can be used in the '85 knuckle. The '85 hub/bearing if original would bolt to the '86 but there would be no provision for ABS.

Ok thanks. Was just trying to figure out why everyone lists the hubs as 84-89.

Front hubs are actually '84 - '90.
