Put trans temp gauge in?
i am thinking about putting a a transmission temp gauge in. i was wondering how hard it is to put in. What lines would go to the trans and if i need to tap into the trans. There are two gauge types, mechanical and electrical and both have different ways of getting installed. Wondering which one would be better

I plan on towing two different small trailers and want to keep an eye on the trans temp. is this what you mean by application?

where you gonna put the sending unit in the drain plug, most temp gauges i have seen are for a automatic and just go in the tranny fluid cooler line i dunno if a manual trans even gets hot enough to register on the gauge, anyone else know about this "swap"

Use a good synthetic in the trans and don't worry about a gauge. Save your money
