Looking for a Left Front Knuckle

Third bad bearing in 15k miles... Took a look and the knuckle is out of round, where the bearing fits (about 12/1000) - egg shaped. Any suggestions on where to get a new one? Preferably with the ABS sensor still attached as I don't know if I'll be able to remove my old one without damaging it. Thanks!

About $175 at the Nissan dealer. Or salvage yard?

I have one with a blown bearing, I don't know if I have the sensor but would let it go for very cheap (although heavy). Let me know.

I set the sensor up last night with some penetrating oil...Ill see how it worked overnight.

I have called every junk yard in my area and the only have ones without ABS - I need one with ABS. There are a couple knuckles on ebay, but the main problem is the abs sensor ~$200 part that I would have to replace if I cannot get it out in one piece - which is usually nearly impossible from what I've heard.

Ill keep looking, let me know if you have any other suggestion.

Thanks!!

Go to carpart.com-> select year etc--> select hub, ur there---> I saw one at a salvage yard in NC for about $45 bux w/sensor. Sort by price then go to last page for cheapest price--ranges from $200-$40's.
