And from picture it appears you have an ABS bearing in that wheel, though you'll want to confirm. They are a different width than standard bearing, so would need to be changed if wheel is to be installed on non ABS bike.

Also the thicker ABS bearing requires a thinner spacer on that side.

The reason the bearing is wider is because the encoder that the sensor reads to determine wheel speed is inside the bearing.
