Default Knock Sensor Location?

Does anyone know where the knock sensor is on a 95 5.9L? I get bad knock in the summer and thought I'd replace it just to make sure it was working correctly. They have to be pretty cheap and easy to replace. - Thanks and Merry Christmas

The reason you can't find one is that Dodge doesn't use them. If you've got a knock issue, you need to check some other things. Part of your hot weather spark knock is a combination of high intake air temps, low octane fuel, and too much spark advance, or too quick of an advance curve in your PCM.
Hughes engines sells a pretty slick add on unit.

I thought the PCM automatically adjusted the advance for knock. That's why I was looking for a sensor. Would just a Mopar Performance ECU cure it too? But that's premium fuel all the time I believe. - thanks
