Speed sensor - pinion yoke

Speed sensor - pinion yoke - 02/13/18 10:59 PM

I think I have this all figured out now. I upgraded my Strange S60 with a new billet yoke and added a 8 magnet collar so I can measure the speed of the driveshaft. I couldn't find a mounting bracket anywhere so I just designed my own from stainless.

I ended up going with a MSD 2348 sensor since it was less expensive than the Holley sensor. I'm sure there are really cheap sensors available from DigiKey or some place like that but I stayed with the name brands.

This MSD sensor is kind of nice since it includes a light that tells you if the sensor is working. The light goes off when the sensor "sees" the magnet. I double checked with a voltmeter and the sensor is sending a signal each time a magnet passes under it. So I think this item is ready to go.

I'm going to make up some extra brackets and put them on the website. They only fit the Dana 60 with the Strange magnet collar.

As always look great. I like the sensor with the light, easy trouble shooting should there be an issue.

Magnet collar and yoke are from Strange. DoctorDiff can get them for you or you can order them from Summit. Off the shelf parts. Same with the MSD sensor. You can get the little stainless steel bracket from DoctorDiff.

I put the collar on my output shaft of my trans. Drilled and tapped the tailshaft and mounted it that way. Just another option for those in need.

I bought all my sensors from Race Pak,I wasn't sure if other sensors were compatible so I took the easy way.I have never found a mounting bracket so I found some scrap aluminum in the garage and fabbed one up.These sensors are probably the same,the O/2 is Bosch and get them at any parts store.
