Original Abstract Submitted

A wheel speed transducer test adapter and method for wheel speed transducer testing. The wheel speed transducer test adapter includes a socket for engagement with a wheel hub. A clevis is rotatable within the socket and with respect to the socket and the wheel hub. The clevis is engaged with a wheel speed transducer attached to the wheel hub. A collar secures the clevis to the socket. A torque supplying device rotates the clevis at a consistent speed which in turn rotates the wheel speed transducer to test the wheel speed transducer after repair or replacement. The entire assembly ensures stability and alignment while the clevis and wheel speed transducer rotate.
