Since im putting in the 5.9 was gonna go ahead and have the guages ran.. Just need some advice on what things ill need to moniter. Not a Diesel, So I wont need a boost. Of course im gonna run a Tranny Temp, and Exhaust Temp. Just need a third to fill the colum im getting.
I'd probably put a oil temp in if you want a 3rd one. I think the tranny temp one is the most important. I have 2 gauges I've added in my Honda but didn't add any to my truck as I don't like any of the options I see for mounting them and don't tow all that much or race so hopefully I don't have the need for any.
Yea I was looking at the Oil Temp.. but for some reason my Cluster on the 99 doesnt even have RPM's, oil is already there.. so I might do tranny, Exhaust, and a tachometer
I'd get a tach then if you don't have one. The only thing is I don't know if you can find a decent small one. Most of them are the big ones like ricers have. I don't think they look bad though if you want that look.
Exhaust temp isn't necessary on a naturally-aspirated engine. I just installed three gauges in my Ram (I have the 5.2), and I got Oil Temp, Tranny Temp, and Vacuum.
Yea.. I was just wondering.. has anyone messed with this brand or maybe can tell by looking at the picture.. whether or not its the colum that will replace the ENTIRE pillar or if its the cheezy as one that clips on.. because the clip ons look like **crap. Thnx
