I put it back in when I was swapping the engine. Kind of a pain in the ass. Theres a lot of shit down there.

I think I remember not being able to make it out the top and when I lowered it it hit the dp so I removed the dp cus it wasnt bolted up yet.

Probably a better way. Good luck.

Fuckity fuck fuck. It's just 3 bolts and an electrical connector. Then why in the fuck is this thing such a pain in the dick to get out? I can't seem to get the connector off; bitch is covered in oil.

I couldn't get my connector off. I ended up breaking the wires in the process.

I found a replacement, but the pigtail wire colors don't match the vehicle harness. Does anyone have a pinout of this connector that shows which wires go where?
