Re: 87 Chevy Crew Cab 4x4 Converion/Cummins swap

A little more last night, and some more good swap info for everyone in futureland..

Searched high and low for a definitive answer to temp sensor infomation, and of course one know nothing says this and another that...Not that I couldnt figure it out woulda just been nice to be on a mission to get what I need, not what I dont need.

To put a CHEVY temp sender in the STOCK cummins location (driver side rear of the head...12v anyways)

you need a 3/4" NPT to 3/8 npt reducer. Couldnt find one in brass so I opted for SS that was on the shelf instead. NAPA part number for the sender new is TS4052.

Also took apart my 2wd stuff to steal the calipers and backing plates from and started to disassemble the dana 60 to do new rotors and such on it. Got as far as the spindle nut and didn't have the right nut wrench for it so had to call it quits. Hopefully got the right one this morning and can get the rest of it off tonight.
