This is a simple add-on for using bltouch sensors together with this extruder. You'll need to unscrew the top and bottom left screws maintaining the motor a couple of mm, slide this part into place and tighten the screws again (you may need longer screws, can't remember if I had to change them but I don't think so !).
Do bear in mind this is untested ! I have mounted a previous version of this part which had a couple of defects so I needed to drill new holes and add nuts at the bottom(like in the picture). This newer version has the needed corrections but I didn't test them yet on my machine.
The "depth" of the sensor does not seem to be the same for everyone so be really careful the first time you run the G28 command to avoid crashing your nozzle onto the bed !
Feel free to modify the sketchup file attached if you need.
[Edit 08-02-2017] : I can confirm it does the job. I've been using it for a few dozens hours of printing and it has the right size. I must admit it is not very elegant but never mind :)
