My 2wd passenger front wheel makes a roaring sound as I apply the brakes, I was told it was a abs sensor, could it be, and are they hard to replace, brakes and rotors look fine, thanks
 






I would take a close look at the wheel bearing first. I guess it could be possible that it is an ABS sensor, but the ABS light would be lit.
 






No light, with 130 on it I should replace both front end bearing, thanks
 






The ABS sensor isn't going to make any noises.
Look at the back side of the rotor, bet the pads are gone and you have metal to metal contact with the rotor. The cause is most likely the caliper guide pins.
