has anyone installed one and where are you taking hte readings from. i am going on my third sensor and i just want a mechanical gauge that works

thanks in advance

 

I installed the adapter and sending unit a while ago and I am satisfied.
Oil filter adapter plate size 3/4 UNF-16 part # 3/4UNF-16 purchased from Prosport Performance at a cost of $38.99 : Z series oil pressure gauge, 2- 1/16electrical ,100 PSI / Part # 105-2634 from JEGS at a cost of $59.99. It was simple to install, I am going to try to include pictures.

 

thank you for the information.

i am guessing there is no way to attach it without and adapter??

 

Install a T fitting under the oil pressure switch so you can have an oil pressure sending unit and still have the idiot light switch.
The oil pressure switch is located on the right side of the timing chain cover, above the oil filter.

 

have you done this?? anything to watch out for??

 

I have done it on other engines. Nothing special to watch out for.
I believe someone here has done it to their JK.

 

Best write-up with pics so far. Thanks. Will the adapter affect the idiot light?

 

As long as the wiring is hooked up there should be no problem with the idiot light. I have been advised that the computer can sense if something is missing and not to disconnect the idiot light .
