I'll try and get a pic of my old one tomorrow, it's definitely higher.

That is the later type as found on 940's and ABS 700 series
The 12 tooth sensor is a screw in sensor |

That's not what was on my 760 (with ABS) at all.

More questions again with regards to swapping from M46 to M90 (and bearing in mind I have a complete M90 equipped 1996 2.3 LPT as a donor):

As for the prop/diff, best of two positions. The 4 bolts are in an "H" pattern, not a perfect square so will only fit in two positions. You could do it with the kit you've got but it would be more difficult and sometimes that extra pair of helping hands can make all the difference.

All I will say is that after breaking four 940s and intending to m90 convert my 940 that I won't be attempting it without removing the engine and gearbox in one, fitting the m90 to the engine after replacing all gaskets and engine mounts then refit it. I have split a box from an engine under the car before and it was an absolute pig of a job trying to undo the bolts that join the box to the engine.

As promised, a pic of mine for comparison - when it was still in the car. As can be seen, the sensor is a lot higher!

On a 2 post ramp it is a easy enough job and should only take 2-3 hours taking it easy.
On your back expect to spend most of the day on it. Is it worth it? Well it all comes down to how much you prefer the M90 |
