I have a FWD, 94 Talon ES and it came without ABS, neither the 2-wheel or 4-wheel versions.

I have a noisy bearing so my question is can I use a hub that is from an ABS car? I see that Auto Zone and NAPA list them separately so I wanted to now if I could use it and maybe remove the ring that triggers the system?
Thanks,
Joe

Your car is FWD therefore it has no rear wheel bearings. I'm not sure about the compatibility issues that your asking but I do know AutuZone lists things seperatly that have nothing to do with each other so they very well could be compatible. For example, when I go in to get an alternator belt they ask me if my cars an A/T or if it has A/C... WTF

The rear will have bearings. may not be the same type of setup as the front, but there are bearings. All cars have rear bearings, just like they have front bearings.

I stand corrected. I did alittle bit of research and even though there is no bearing for the axle to go through there is still one mounted on the back of the hub. I just learned something today, now I can start my weekend. :)

I ended up ordering a non-ABS hub/bearing assy off of Ebay delivered for 41 bucks delivered.
I knew it had a wheel bearing as the wheel is rotating with a hub ...
I was able to prove to myself that the bearing was bad because as I drive and veer slightly to the right or left the vibration wil disappear or increase.
