What Ho Bracey!,

We usually make a bracket above the diff nose. If it is bolted to the car off the chassis, if it is a live axel off the diff nose itself. You can drill a hole in this, to pint the sender at the prop flange on the diff input. This is usually about 15mm wide. We drill holes fractionally bigger than the size of the magnet, and the same depth. Drop the magnets into the holes with some araldite, and they should be there forever!

Obvious cautions:

Get the magnets the right way round - the senders are usually polarity sensitive - maybe there is a spot on the magnets?

Get them evenly spaced

Check the clearance gap. Some we use are 1mm! Obviously the bracket needs to be good! One car we bought recently had the manufacturers bracket on it, which was fixed to the car on a live setup. Needless to say when driving the prop moved and wiped out the sender - £80 for a new one - Ouch

We use ETB (2 magnets) and VDO (2 magnets or proximity to a bolt - which on a Westfield wipes out the sender...)

Never seen 6 magnets - whats that all about!

Have fun - if you wish call in to Raw Striker Norh and have a look at some installs for inspiration - if this isn't clear!
