I had the same issue when I got my new sending unit and I just took a die and gently threaded the stud.

The butt connectors will work also. The female ends of them will fit on it. Are you can buy the correct wire and end for it.

The factory sendor had no threads. It takes the same connector as the cig lighter.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
