the only difference between ABS & non-ABS rear hub (front CV joint is prob the same thing) is a small machined lip to pressfit the ABS ring onto.
when an ABS rear hub was +£90 i simply got a £40 non-ABS rear hub and got a machinist m8 to lathe a lip on the hub similar spec to my old ABS hub and pressfitted the ABS ring over
the spec of the prefacelift 1.3 auto/manual shafts I'm not sure. but my 1994 1.3 SLX was technically originally an auto but has at some point in its life been in a front smash that the front frames been replaced and been converted to a manual for some reason (the engine block was still the original auto due to the telltale reinforced closed deck feature) and the driveshafts match my 1998 1.3 SLX manual.
so the manual/auto shafts might be the same?
