Default ABS sensor replaceable?

2008 Uplander:
I've determined that the ripped out wires from the front right ABS sensor is probably contributing to all the pretty colors displayed on the insrument cluster I see.
Are these ABS sensors replaceable or does one have to change out the hub/bearing assembly?

Wheel Speed Sensor Replacement - Front

Removal Procedure

Important: The front wheel speed sensors and rings are integral with the hub and bearing assemblies.

If a speed sensor or a ring needs replacement, replace the entire hub and bearing assembly. Do not service the harness pigtail individually because the harness pigtail is part of the sensor.
Remove the hub and bearing assembly.

Installation Procedure

  1. Install the hub and bearing assembly to the vehicle.
  2. Lower the vehicle.
  3. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position with the engine off.
  4. Perform diagnostic system check. Refer to Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle.

Thanks for the advice. I replaced the hub and bearing assembly last weekend and it appears there is no way to replace the ABS sensor without the bearing, they are integrated as a unit.
I was reading somewhere on a online parts source that the sensors alone can be purchased, I guess this would be for a older model vehicle.

Now that I've replaced the front hub and repaired the wiring to a rear ABS sensor, all my error messages are gone for the brakes, ABS, traction control and stability control.

Now onto other issues....
