Good Bearings, Short Wire

These appear to be really good wheel bearings and I knew from reviewers that it was probably a short wire. But I figured that wouldn't be a problem because I just used my existing long wire wheel speed sensor and removed the one in the block storage. Well, the first sign of a problem is when you pull the block out when there is a label on the box that says you can't remove or replace the wheel speed sensor because it was matched to a bearing. So if you can't replace a $20 speed sensor if it ever fails, does that mean you have to replace the entire block bearing if the speed sensor fails? However, be aware that these speed sensor cables on a JK 2012+ will be shorter than factory and will affect your off-road capabilities. If your axle falls off, you can damage the speed sensor cable.
