Default 1998 racetronix fuel pump ground wire doesn't reach

Got everything hooked up and installed but the ground wire doesnt reach the ground on my fuel sender?? Is mine an oddball or what. The pics they show the ground on sender in a different spot.. I guess i just lengthin the wire?

Notice ground spot at top of sending unit. Wire doesn't reach


Btw you have to be a damn ninja to get that lock to hold the sock on lol

This is not a Delphi hanger hence the issue.
Please converse with a tech in our support forum for a possible solution.

Thank you!

Wow!!! Delphi hangers use to be SS.
New production must be sourced offshore now since it is the same design as other brands.

Either way please contact a tech on our forum about this. We may have to offer a modified ITWH if Delphi has gone this way

Yeah, the original had the ground peg on the hanger itself about half way down.
