I'd examine the debris and make sure you account for the source(s). Something got loose in there and chewed up the ABS sensor. If that isn't fixed, the new sensor will get damaged as well.

good find, that bend doesn't contact the spindle luckily. The debris looked like pieces of the original sensor, it was the OEM and it might have just been extremely brittle from age and mileage, possibly damaged when I reinstalled the CV and the debris from itself is what took out the second sensor. I've thoroughly cleaned it all out in there, Cant think of anything else that would cause an issue.
Side note: what exactly are the circular, small spring bands that sit on the end of the cv. I dont have a pic unfortunately, but if you have pulled a cv you have seen them. They sort of hook together.
