transfer case- make sure you catch TD's post on his wheel coming off- start by measuring length of original vs what is new one. micrometer or caliper. sorry, I cant find anything anywhere on gap distance. I would measure, then try a tad more gap than measured, then call Heath Diesel.:nonod:

Paul,

I don’t know. I saw it the day we put it in. It’s very thin; much thinner than a washer.

If you clean off the sensor and it still doesn’t work adding the shim will not make a bad sensor start working again. It was kind of a long term fix to place the sensor a bit farther from the pickup wheel so it wouldn’t get full of magnetic particles and gum up as fast.

what I meant was adding a bit extra would make sure that the sensor does not contact anything without a valid measurement. If it did not work with a new sensor, close the gap a little. too close too soon might result in horrific damage to the wallet.
