Default axle shaft issue

hello,
i little while ago i had a bad axle bearing on the right side, I removed the bad bearing and seal and removed the axle.
The axle is worn , there is a deep groove/notch where the bearing was settled.
so I ordered a repair bearing , a normal bearing with seperate seal.And i ordered a new axle shaft.
but now i noticed that on the new axle isn't a abs tone ring like the worned axle and I searched almost everywhere but i don't find the tone ring i need.
I bought one that is for a automatic trans but that ring is just to little .

now i don't know what to do.
would i install back the worn axle and install the repare bearing or should i install the new axle without the abs reluctor ring?
I now that the abs system will not work if I install the new one without the abs ring.
but the abs system isn't working for 2 years ( yellow dashlight burns al the time (maybe due the oil from the bad bearing )

thx

returning the parts is too expensive because I am from Belgium
