I got to it without dropping the crossmember.
Lie perpendicular to the length of the jeep, with your head by the driver's door.
It might be easier to remove the front driveshaft, but I didn't and still was able to replace the CPS.
DO NOT drop the bolts into the bell housing!
victor_s said:Hmm is it just a pop into place deal or is there some alignement involved in putting the new sensor back in?
Can you please post the link of the Notching you did so i can see what im dealing with here , thanks alot
Blaine B. said:The bolts will center it correctly.
Notching just makes it so you don't have to remove the bolts entirely to remove the sensor.
Although I'm not sure if I like that idea considering that somehow I assume the sensor wouldn't be perfectly in alignment if it slid out a tiny but upon installation or what not.

I mean the screw goes through a closed whole?
5-90 is suggesting that you make sideways cuts in the CPS bracket, to turn the holes into slots that open from the side. This allows you to screw the bolts in lightly first, then hang the CPS on the bolts. I haven't tried this myself, because the CPS replacements I have gotten came with a new plastic dust cover that does not allow sideways movement. I found that if you snap the dust cover in first it helps hold the CPS in place while you put the bolts in, and it also helps prevent accidentally dropping the bolts into the bell housing. If you have no dust cover, notching is probably worth trying.victor_s said:how am i soposto slip it on if the old sensor is still there?

About cutting the lower hole differently so you have to pivot the sensor up.
Sounds like it would do a better job at aligning the sensor than cutting the sensor like in the pictures.
What about warranty though?
