You'll probably need to change the mounts but other than that... might look good.

Why? Driveshafts not installed? Transfer case in neutral? It's ok... we all do it once.

Well... Let me know next time you're headed to uhwarrie and I might just meet you there. It'd be a nice little drive to warm everything up and see how it's working.

So I'm guessing my local Autozone isnt going to have a switch like that... I'll let you know what I find.

A friend of mine brought up an interesting point... What about using a toggle switch in the middle of the connection and getting another sending unit for the tranfer case. Then you could just label the toggle switch and save some money on an all new gauge. Any ideas on this? What is the normal...

If you buy a filter from autozone it comes with a new gasket. I think once you get the tranny pan off, it's only like 3-4 bolts. Not hard at all.

I think I would prefer a spot with a little more flow. Am I right it wanting this? I figure it would give me a more accurate reading.

Very nice... Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks

I just purchased a trans temp gauge and when I went to install it I realized something... I don't know where to put the sending unit. I've made a couple decisions however. I realize that since I do not want to have a bung welded into the pan I only have two other options; use an existing hole...

Have you tried putting something heavy on the other side to help it settle evenly? Mine was uneven for a while but after driving aound with a 33" spare on the passenger side, it evened out.

Ok... I found and did the TCU test. It works the same with it unplugged and plugged with the exception of me having to manually shift. Oh, and the "check engine" light came on. Something about a torque convertor sensor. I know what the torque convertor is but didn't know it had a sensor. I'm...

Ok... I'm gonna go insane. All I have to work with right now is a multi-tool. I can't get any further than getting the glovebox off. Is there any way to unplug a fuse or straight from the tranny? I didn't see it on any of the fuse diagrams.

Well... I just took it to what I thought was a good tranny place just to be told what I already know... My tranny won't do anything in reverse and neutral acts like it's a drive gear. Oh and for them to get any better idea of whats wrong, it'll be $350 to take it out, take it apart, and if...

Another thing I discovered. While cruising at say 50mph, if I shift into N it acts as though it really is in neutral. It's only at very slow speeds or at a stop that neutral acts as a drive gear. Also, with the engine off, in P it won't move, in D it won't move, but in N it'll roll around just...

Break it down barney style for me. A picture would be awesome. There's alot of wires underneath the glove box. It's a 99'. Do I need to remove any of the plastic molding?
