Back to that Tracker transmission.  What about a 2wd trans?  Still a mess of work with the tunnel and mounting?


Still needs tunnel mods.  But you can use the stock crossmember for mounting.  When I used a 2wd trackick tranny,  I had to cut the little raised plate off the top of the crossmember and mount it down right on the crossmember, in order for the tranny to sit low enough to keep the intermediate shaft ujoint angles in check.

And the VSS, I'll have to look at it closer to see what is actually happening at the speedo end of the cable, if I'm not using the speedo anyway, maybe I can take the VSS all the way back to the other end of the cable and bypass all that mess.  It would be much cleaner anyway.

Its just a reed switch and magnet mounted on the back of the speedo head, no reason why you can't locate it elsewhere. If you're using a digital dash then you can get most of the information you need from the ECUs serial link.

Ok, back on this VSS thing...

I found a nice writeup on the install to the Sammi speedo, but just what exactly is it that I'm supposed to remove from the Tracker speedo?  I tore my donor apart last night but nothing jumped out that looked like the bracket in the writeup for the install...

Thanks
