You will need an allen wrench (forgot the size) to remove the 2 bolts holding the TPS sensor that is located on the drivers side of the Throttle body. Remove the 2 bolts, and the sensor slides out. Unplug the wiring harness to the old TPS and plug into new TPS, and then slide the TPS back into the throttle body and tighten down the 2 bolts.

Would highly recommend doing this when the engine is cool or warm but not hot.
Thanks for writing in> I followed your advise and it worked like a charm. My Durango never ran so good.
