...Almost afraid to jump on this conversation but...
IF you happen to break the tab off the speed sensor connector (it's gonna happen 14 years down the road), I have found the ACDelco PT2386 Professional Multi-Purpose Pigtail [FONT=&quot]https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001DUIJCC/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_5AdlFb6Q3H02Q[/FONT] is a good replacement - - even for a non-mechanic like me).

You can get the pigtails from Rock Auto as well: https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/hummer,2006,h3,3.5l+l5,1431872,electrical-connector,vehicle+/+output+speed+sensor+connector,15798

Alternatively, for a cleaner assembly you can get the kit to crimp directly to the wires from Ballenger Motorsports. This connector is the newer GT150 style, whereas the pigtail connectors are mostly the older Metripack 150 type. They are functionally interchangeable, but the GT150 has a TPA for better wire retention and is an overall better design. Make sure you have a decent set of proper fold crimp pliers if you go this route. Cheapie parts stire crimpers won't cut it with these connectors.

Brad, which fluid did you use? We need to debate about that and call you names if you used something that differs from our individual opinions :no:

Everybody knows you use Dex III or equivalent at a minimum. Dex VI is GARBAGE!!! I wouldn't wash my toilet with Dex VI. Mobil Delvac Synthetic ATF or Castrol Transynd is the finest Dex III equivalent fluid out there. Put it in your transmission too! Alternatively, Redline MTL works great in chain drive transfer cases. Ask me how I know :deal:
