No teach i dont do alot of towing anymore, hence why i got the roll pan, i want to be able to monitor the temps in the trans, as i do tend to play quite a bit. if the temps are too high, then ill look into a larger row cooler. I think a magtec would be too much.

This is installed 90%, it is all wired up all i need now is an adapter from what i believe is 3/8 npt to 1/8 npt, for my sensor to go into the port on the trans.

I thought the gauge that was coming was gonna be 1/8 npt, Gail can you confirm or clarify which i ordered.

The one that came is to big for the port, should i just buy an adapter or ask glowshift to ship me a different one.

DIY coming soon as i complete the install....for now...those arent hot spots with the leds, thats just how my phone took it, near the bottom of the sweep and the top of the sweep, its a lil dimmer but nothing to complain about...

remember the sensor is not hooked up in these photos....




i was headed to the gas station...

It looks great!

The one you ordered comes standard as 1/8th. Only available this way.
I will call first thing in the morning for you.

You have the stock sensor, right? And, which port are you trying to screw it onto?
