Another update.....

Still waiting for the connector to be shipped from Marlin. I may end up canceling the order. Needed to drive my truck to work this week. So, made the tundra VSS work and matched the depth of the taco VSS.

A friend of mine reminded me that the VSS gear is pressed on. So, I pressed it out just a tad, enough for it measure the same depth as the taco VSS. Reinstalled and so far, the MPH on the scan gauge has not "jumped" around. There's still a lot of the gear pressed on and I'm not worried if it slips off. I may stick with this fix, move on and get my $70 back for the part LOL!
