[QUOTE="seethesvt, post: 16218294, member: 182602"] Installed the FTBR kit this weekend. The new FRPP diff cover had a spot in it to drill and tap for a temp sensor, so i got a new sensor and did that. When I went to test drive the car this morning, as soon as I turned the key the temp said 120ish. Since it was only 80° outside I knew its definitely reading wrong. After a 10 minute spirited drive around the block it was reading 200°. So I grabbed a jumper and jumped the ground of the gauge to a good ground and the temp went down to about 120, and back to 200 when I let go. Upon further inspection I saw that whoever installed it didn't crimp the terminal for the ground. Easy fix. Can't get an alignment for a couple days, so can't take it out to really heat it up. I will take it out this weekend for a couple hours to verify that the temps are good and to shake down the IRS and recheck torques.
