1940 Dodge truck gas tank sender - twin connections

Hi all,

I'm looking to replace the original type of gas tank sender units as were originally fitted to my '40 truck (two tanks).

We tried single contact senders (I think they came from a Jeep spares shop) but, as I half expected, they didn't work with my gauge. So what I need is one, or ideally two, tank sender units correct for a '40 truck - two connections on the sender, standard five hole mounting.

I assume that they are the same as those fitted to 1940 1/2 ton civilian pickups etc, just with a different length rod to suit my larger tank(s) - is this right?

Can anyone recommend a supplier? Are reproduction senders any good?

Thanks, Richard.

Will this one work ? Top seems exact to what you are showing.
