I got a used one from an awesome member here at these forums, but I don't have instructions for it.
I know its an easy install, I just don't know what to do.
Here is the product:

I just need someone who already installed it to walk me through it, I don't know where to start. I did several Google searches, but still came up with nothing.
Thanks,
Ben

Ok, so I have the plate physically mounted, I just don't know where to plug the other end of the long extension in.
I unplugged the connector from the old PMD, and pulled it out where I can see it, but the loom disappears inside the intake manifold, and I can't tell where the other end of it is for me to plug it in.
I found a pdf of a 4WD installation where you have to drill holes in the skid plate to mount the new PMD, and for the wire hook up, there is a male end right there where the factory mounted PMD is, and I only have the female end there.
I know this is real simple, and I apologize, but I just don't know anything about diesels.
Thanks,
Ben

I don't know how heath's hooks up. I made my own. I am sure if you call heath they would instuct you how to or walk you through it.

After un-plugging your original PMD you dont have much slack to plug in the extention but it will go. Keep trying. It took me 1/2 hour to gently get enough slack and get it plugged in.

If the two ends (the end you just unplugged off the pump-mounted PMD and the once on the extension cable) look the same, it's because they are the same. Plug them together so the tabs are both on the outside, and then seal the connection. Use heat-shrink tubing if you have some, electrical tape if you don't. Run a little zip-tie through the tabs to hold the two together.

You do have to fish the one out of the old PMD from underneath.
Use something creative like coat hanger.

I called Heath, and he said that it should have come with pins so you can make the 2 female connectors connect.
I made due with a few cut up paper clips, and sealed them together, and put a zip tie to hold them together.
Thanks for all the help!
