Fuel sending units
All Mopar fuel sending units house the resistor up at the mount at the tank end. aftermarket ones are mounted half way down the tube. I hope this clears this up.
You can use an aftermarket sending unit but you have to change the way the stock gauge receives the signal.
First pic is a linear resistor the second is non-linear
A Mopar gauge is meant to receive a signal in a non-linear resistance format. Therefore you must use a matching signal in order for the gauge to read it properly. Attached are the physical differences between the two types.
