yes that’s it. I might cut down that hex head side to push the sensor further in.

Another option I just saw is drill out the location and tap with a M16 so you can just screw the factory sensor into the ls head instead of dealing with adapters.
Hey, did you have any clearance problems with this setup? Mine interferes with the brake lines where they come down from the fender to the frame on the DS. Trying to figure out how to handle it. Pic is with the brake line bracket unbolted and shoved about as far as it can g ... and it's still against.

Anyone have the ewd for 91-92? I got the all data and combing through it. But just wanted to ask while I’m doing this if anyone has the pin outs for those years.
I had a hard time finding the 91 ewd. I found a 90 online. Send me a PM and I can send you a copy. There were some differences between 90 and 91. I ended up buying a paper copy of the 91 ewd in the end.
Chipping away. Still a lot of little things but the last two major things are a shifter and exhaust.
I’m having trouble figuring out what tap I need to do the oil pressure sending unit on that piece on the drivers side of the oil pan.

You’re not cooling the PS fluid in any way? Looks like you have a leftover cooler there that’s unused.
Tight for on the corner of the engine there.
The black finned cylinder is the power steering cooler.
on 1991 land cruiser oil pressure sensor thread is 1/8" BSPT ( BRITISH STANDARD PIPE TAPER ) but i do not know on others , it may be same

I ordered this one SUM-380457-SH. Haven’t gotten to fitment yet but seen others use this. I’m also using a mechanical fan.

Fits the radiator nearly perfect. I riveted some small skirts to the side to contain the airflow. Mounting brackets can be drilled through the flange on the radiator - i made some 1/4" Al blocks for where the flange dips in at the top.
The problem is that it a bit to deep on the DS bottom corner and interferes with the brake line. Had to chop it out and bend up some sheet metal to patch it back up.
Nice!It's the Derale 16838

Now that it's mounted, I'm thinking that maybe a cleaner approach would've been to cut 1/2" to 5/8" off the entire thing. It's going to be tight on the intake up top as well, and that would help.
What DD box do y’all suggest for the tach?

Hey guys, has anyone ever measured the stock front pulley location with respect to the frame rails? If I had access to a stock engine in frame if would try something like this with two right angles or mayb a right angle and a level. It would be nice to document height and left/right offset.
I get where you're going, but imo its not that critical for a swap. If you get the 'pitch' fairly close to zero or a little tilted back and the trans output and crank pulley are centered send it.
The height the crank is gonna need to ride at is dependent on a bunch of stuff, trans tunnel clearance, oil pan clearance and any other clearances that need to be dealt with.
I think in favor of making the height and left/right measurements independent just measure the hypotenuse and make it a little simpler.
