It looks like you have the mounting bolt out already, from the service manual, that is all that holds the sensor to the Hub… except of course for the years of rust and grime! If it is really stuck, I would try spraying the sensor mount with some lubricant (WD-40 ect..) then after letting it soak in for awhile, I would gently tap on the unit with a rubber mallet and then possibly grab it with some vice grips or pliers and gently rock it back and forth while pulling the housing out from the hub...

Good luck!

Yea well since this site was down all day yesterday I ended up breaking it trying to get it off. So that's a $130 part I didn't know about !
