If you have a test port on your fuel rail, remove the schraeder valve from that, and get the fittings you need from any hardware store to hook up the sending unit. Do NOT put a mechanical fuel gauge inside the cab.

It's a lot like having a voltmeter or an oil pressure gauge. It's just to keep an eye on things and get early warning of impending failure.
