Unhappy Bearings help with parts/advise

Hi guys this is for a 96' A4 with a 2.8L FWD ,the bearing with the problem is the drivers rear ,I remove the tire today and after removing all the nuts and stuff on the way I tap the disc brake out and the outer bearings just drop on the ground ,by looking at my pics do you see anything else wrong ,this is my first time doing Audi bearings do they need to be press in or I can do them by hand?? also on my disc brake is the piece for the ABS with all those teeth I believe how is that piece coming off?? it seems welded by rust.

Are this all the parts I need ,this is the best price I found so far ,autozone wants $56 for just one rotor.

By the way anyone has a write up on doing this work maybe even a PDF on how the parts go together Thanks.

that bearing had to be really fucked up to come out and yes you are looking at the right parts to get do not buy from autozone period for your car besides for oil and spark plugs that all i would get from them

Being front wheel drive and the rear bearing it is not pressed so you got lucky there. I haven't been to an Autozone in over 7 years and would stick with Andrew on that one. Hell I won't even walk in one. They look to be the right parts. As far as the sensor soak the mating surface with penetrating oil and gently finesse it off. Cars are like women, never force, always finesse lol.
