A vehicle axle is provided that includes a spindle supporting a wheel hub having a toothed wheel. A tapered axle portion is adjacent to said spindle, and an ABS sensor bracket is secured to the tapered portion. The bracket has a body defining a hole receiving an ABS sensor adjacent the toothed wheel. The bracket includes a pedestal extending from the body and terminating in a base extending transversely from the pedestal. Reinforcing ribs may be used between the base and pedestal to strengthen the area. The base secured to the axle portion by a weld arranged in a notch in the base and another weld arranged at the rear of the base. The bracket is preferably secured to the axle by an automated process in which the axle is already precisely oriented for a procedure to the axle, such as the attachment of the brake spider.
