Here's the how-to I made when I did mine...you'll need MS Word or something that opens .doc files for it.

This is a big help, thanks! Only two suggestions:
If possible, I would connect the new sensor's plug first, then place it near where it mounts, then go back into the wheelwell and bolt it into place. That eliminates fishing around with the coathanger, and the need for a 2nd person.
Also, I'd put the wheelwell and wheel back on and lower it before running the engine.

That's why I made it. =P

That may be possible...I'm thinking the space was REALLY tight and required a bit of weaving and we found it easier to just fish the connector up to where it hooks up. Not positive on that though so if it looks like you can do it that way, it very well might be easier.
Also, I'd put the wheelwell and wheel back on and lower it before running the engine.
Getting the wheel off and popping all the clips off the wheel well takes too much time...I personally would rather know if my engine's gonna run or not before I put all that stuff back on (in case it doesn't run and I gotta take it all back off again). However, you do gotta use common sense and make sure you don't decide to take it for a test drive...while on 7 wheels...3 which were made for the truck.

i'm glad i have a 5spd manual. i just disconnected the sensor under the hood and got under the truck to pull it out. i had plenty of room and the bolts were really easy to get to.

I am checking out a MSD non magnetic pickup
wheel that can be setup to run 4,6,8,10,12 cyl's
It has a 7" dia and can be put on the front
crank pully if it works you would be able to
get some real advance
the V6 can run antwhere from 6 to 9 degrees
advance befor ping
The crank sensor mod you can get from 3 to 5
Pull your fuel pump relay #1 wire drivers side
and check where its at base is 10 do the mod
and recheck and see what your getting
I made 1 that I can get upto 10 but its a real
pain to work with
Be sure you pull out the rubber gromit so it will
move over
