I always install the trans temp senses in the pan via a brazed bung. No leaks and you get the "true" temp.


Let's see a pic of the pup!

Hey Georg, Does it matter where in the pan? Could you please post a pic? Thank you.

 

[orangefj45]

Don't have a pic in the "archives" but I usually mount the sender in the rear of the pan. There's room on the inside ( double check before drilling a hole, the valve body doesn't allow for too many options ) for clearance and the sender is well protected.

No pup yet unfortunately.
Being w/out a dog is Sooooo effing hard once you've had one for so long...
I miss my g man...everyday!

Thanks for the sender tip in the pan. A bit late for me to do that. I'll see how the sender off the line will do.

Trans tunnel and Shifter boots are in.
What a bitch that was getting the boots tucked in....

Oh and take off your shoes before you enter, you don't want to scratch the paint.

Yeah... Kinda!
My temp gauge is 150-400 deg, so... Im guessing it's just not getting up to temp to register?? Kinda good I think??? Then the HD trans cooler probably keeps it down even more.
Not much else to check, really. Guess I'll just wait and see what happens this coming run. I'd think crawling boulders should get the op temps up somewhat.

Thanks for taking the time to pay attention to that for me!!!

The only finished for good I know of is the day it gets sold or completely destroyed.
