Trying to fit a water-to-air radiator. Is this necessary? What the heck is it?

What year is your rig? Looks like scrap metal to me.
 
Scrap? Could be a Jeep part someone snuck in there. Cut it off. Jk I don’t know. 😝
 
It's a sensor used with the automatic heater control on the LX450.

This. You should also have a sensor on the top of the dash, passenger side these two communicate with the climate control system.

your truck would not know what the outside temperature is, and hence, would not know what to adjust the AC/heater to

why do you want to delete the sensor ?

having battled heat in both the 80 and the LX, both with superchargers (in Arizona, 110 and over outside temps in the summer, truck going well up to 220 and over at traffic lights, yada yada) in recent years, the verdict by now is that a juiced fan clutch, 2FE fan or stock fan, and a TYC radiator are the best combo

and, for what it's worth, that conclusion was reached when Tools R Us was still alive and wrenching on the 80 and LX

Need room for water to air intercooler. I think ill work around it.

Thanks!
 
IIRC that arm correct, there’s a locating cleat in the foot.

I’m betting from the pic you want to use that bolt for the temp arm for your core.

I seem to recall grinding my cleat & rotating it clockwise the 75-90^ you get, plus then you can use that pickup to bolt the core to.

HTH.
 
I was about to post a similar picture, but thought I’d search for “what is this” first. Mud comes through again.
